Six Of Hearts booked a trip to Royal Ascot with victory in the opening seven-furlong handicap at Naas.

Kevin Manning produced the Pivotal gelding inside the final furlong and he stayed on gamely to land the spoils in a competitive affair.

"I thought the ground might be getting a little bit lively for him but he handled it well," said winning trainer Cecil Ross.

"The owners are particularly keen to go to Royal Ascot and he'll be entered for the seven-furlong handicap there on the Friday."
