Funatfuntasia proved too strong for even-money favourite Mourad in the mile conditions race at Dundalk.

Billy Lee produced his mount to lead well inside the final furlong and he kept on well to score by a neck from the hotpot.

"He's a very difficult ride and Billy was very good on him," said trainer Joanna Morgan.

"He's very tricky and pulls like a train. He has a nose net on him to try and settle him but Billy said he has never rode anything around here that's as keen.

"We stretched him in trip as he does stay. Last time he just got no cover. He has oodles of ability.

"Hopefully we'll go to Dubai with him and I don't mind if he goes up a couple of pounds as he'd get in then. There are plenty of races for him there and he'll love the surface.

"I could send him there with Fourpenny Lane and Raise Your Heart. I'm delighted for the owners, who are local."
