Daonethatgotaway (12/1) recorded a first victory when landing the first division of the James Collins Memorial Handicap under Gavin Ryan.
Trained by Mark Fahey for John C Martin, the Tamayuz gelding came from off the pace to lead under a furlong out and held Lisamaria by a neck
"He had been running consistently and has been a bit unlucky at times," said Ryan.
"The tongue-tie was a help to him today. I rode him in his maiden runs and I always thought there was a day in him.
"It has taken a while to happen but the nice ground today suited him. They went a good even gallop and once they steadied up, I was able to take him out wide and it gave me a chance to get into the race."
