Dom Carlos broke well and made all to land a competitive looking median auction race at the Curragh.

The 11/1 chance had Donnacha O'Brien in the saddle and the pair soon had Pride Of Pimlico and Gavin Ryan for company on the outside.

Pride Of Pimlico came under pressure approaching the final quarter of a mile as Dom Carlos still travelled strongly.

O'Brien went for the whip coming to the final furlong and his mount readily asserted in the final 100 yards to score by four lengths.

Dom Carlos was very easy to back from 9/2 in the morning then 17/2 on opening show out to 11/1. Evasive Power kept on for second at 6/1 for Michael O'Callaghan and Leigh Roche Offline the 15/8 favourite, came in third of the seven runners.

Trainer Joseph O'Brien said: “He’s stepped up plenty with each run. We always liked him and he was fairly impressive. He’s got plenty of pace.

“He wears the blinkers as he’s a bit lairy but he’s not ungenuine. He’s just a bit lazy and a slow learner so we stick them on him.

“It was quite a good race as the second, third and fourth are all winners and he’s won by four lengths.”

This was a first winner for the sire, Gale Force Ten, who Joseph O'Brien rode to win the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot in 2013.
