Muscle Beach followed up his win at Fairyhouse last week for Charles O'Brien and Fran Berry in the Hevac Supporting Console Handicap.

On a trying evening for many punters at Naas, Muscle Beach overturned 10/11 chance Vector Force by a neck.

O'Brien said: "He did it nicely. I thought eleven pounds was plenty for last week, considering he only won because he jumped better than the rest of them (grass marking down where the fences had been situated at Fairyhouse).

"That maybe gave him a bit of confidence and he wasn't a bad horse last year.

"My horses weren't right towards the end of last season and I probably ran him when he wasn't right.

"Thankfully there's no permanent damage. I don't think handicap options are going to be goer anymore so he'll probably go for a stakes race." (GC & EM)
