Fighting Brave made a winning debut for Ballydoyle in the seven-furlong maiden at Dundalk.

Colm O'Donoghue produced his mount inside the final furlong to get to the front and score by a length-and-three-quarters from Keraloun

"He was a bit green early on but when he got the message he done it well," said O'Donoghue.

"Aidan was originally going to run him over six furlongs but thought the seven would suit him better. He liked the surface."
