There was another tight finish in the apprentice handicap at Killarney as the Joseph O'Brien-trained Rockabill edged the verdict for Shane Crosse.
It turned into a good duel inside the final furlong between the Fastnet Rock colt and For Pleasure
Rockabill just found a bit more close home to stick his neck out for a head success.
The 11/2 winner had been second on his handicap debut over course and distance last month.
It was an eleventh winner of the season for Crosse.
