Lost Treasure completed a treble for Aidan and Donnacha O'Brien, as he took the concluding Summer Sounds At The Curragh Handicap.

Successful in a maiden over the course on Sunday, the son of War Front was sent off at 5/1 on what was his debut in handicap company.

Settled in mid-division, the bay victor came with his challenge between horses from the furlong pole, and was pushed along to lead inside the final 100 yards, going on to score comfortably by half a length. Amanaat (20/1) kept on well to take second under Seamie Heffernan for Denis Hogan, while the 9/2 favourite (backed from 11/2) Shore Step was a neck back in third.

O’Brien senior, who was on the mark earlier with Cardini and Sir Erec said afterwards: "It was a good performance coming back quickly from a maiden and into a handicap. He travels well and has loads of speed.

"He's a fast horse and you would be delighted with him. We'll look for a good handicap with him over five or six, and he wants a nice bit of ground."
