After a 33/1 reverse in the previous heat, punters got back on track in race four at Listowel with the featured Irish Stallion Farms EBF Premier Nursery Handicap going the way of 7/4 favourite Warm The Voice

The Kevin Manning ridden top-weight had to cope with the flying late run of Drombeg Dream which Brendan Duke's charge managed to do by half a length.

There was the same margin back to Warm The Voice's market-rival, Quizical (9/4) in third.

"He is absolute class and has a great mind and great big ticker," enthused Duke.

"I had the best in the business riding him and I didn't need to be worrying. 

"I'm a little bit concerned for Kevin (Manning) going forward - he'll have to make a big decision next year between Warm The Voice and Verbal Dexterity in the Guineas but that will be Kevin's problem! 

"Do not underestimate how progressive he is and he is stepping up all the time. He wants betters ground so it was a fabulous performance; he's a very unique animal in that he is getting paid for being educated."

He added: "It's great for the Dubs to come down and say hello to you all on All-Ireland Final week in view of the fact that you people are not coming up to Jones' Road (Croke Park)!

"So I thought I'd come down, get a few quid and say hello and go home then.

"I'm going to take my time with him and might go to Naas (Beresford) at the end of the month - it's been the plan since April."
