Tammany Hall (5/1) came from last and finished strongly to take the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Premier Nursery under a fine ride from Billy Lee.

Charles O’Brien’s No Nay Never chestnut missed the kick a little and was held up out the back. Lee pressed the button when meeting the rising ground and his mount picked up well for pressure to cut down 7/4 favourite Tar Heel and win by half a length.

A £38,000 yearling purchase at Tattersalls October Sale in Newmarket, Tammany Hall had been runner-up on his nursery debut over a furlong further at the Curragh last month.

After his 33rd winner of the season, Lee remarked: “He missed the kick with me and I had to ride a different race than I had planned.

“They went a good gallop and I was able to bide my time and ride him for a bit of luck, hoping he might run on for a place. To be fair to him when I got out of the dip and grabbed a hold of him he picked up well.

“I knew from the last day he'd keep going and he's done it well at the line. It's a nice pot to land. Hopefully, if conditions stay right, there might be another race in him before the year is out.”
