The young rider took the non-fancied Sylvanite in a nice trip over the 1800m distance of the race and beat the favourite Dubai Sun, Paul Hanagan in the saddle, in a very good style.

In the third meet of the afternoon, Lee rode Al Badou, raced by Mohammed Al Jamali and trained by Doug Watson and again prevailed over fancied Dramatic Edge, Ted Durcan up.

The crowd which has been disappointed twice due to the stunning defeat of their favourites, did in fact appreciate the good work of the Irish rider and gave him a very warm welcome in the winners enclosure.

Meanwhile, the formidable partnership of Al Raihe-Mullen continued to make its presence strongly felt as the Duo guided Jbel Dy Bac to a clear win over a quality ten-horse field in the 1400m Purebred Arabians Handicap Serve U Cup.

Paul Hanagan compensated his trainer Paddy Rudken for the heartbreaking defeat of Dubai Sun in the Maidens with a clean victory on board Litigado over Hobb Alwahtan (Willie Supple rides) in the 2200m Romeo Design Thoroughbreds Handicap feature.

Brett Doyle, riding Raging Creek, did all the work in his first day with his new Yellow Stables and gave trainer Allan Smith and owner Shaikh Ahmed bin Rashid Al Maktoum their only win of the afternoon in the 1200m Thoroughbreds Rated Conditions Derrinstown Stud Cup.
