Johnny Murtagh's big-race bandwagon rolled on at Leopardstown as he picked up the two main prizes on an afternoon packed with high-class talent.
The jockey was on board as Again put up a display full of promise to land the Group Two Ballygallon Stud Debutante Stakes for the David Wachman yard.

Pat Smullen brought her up from the rear to swing wide in search of better ground on the turn into the straight and she soon took over from Jumbajukiba who stuck to the far rail.
Carribean Sunset eased away from British raider Blythe Knight through the final furlong to win by four and a half lengths.
