A first racecourse ride for Ryan Sexton (16) and a dream first winner on Stellaire Enfant in the apprentice handicap at Limerick.

He produced her in the final furlong to pick off Pimstrel with 100 yards to go.

The 22/1 shot made the best way home and took the hours by half a length from a staying-on Dragon Belle at 50/1. Hidden Spark (9/2) and Musalsal the 4/1 favourite, completed the placings in this 16-runner handicap in which just over a length encompassed the first four home.

Peter Fahey said: "Ryan is a brother of Kevin's and joined me full-time at the end of June having graduated from RACE. He had been with me on summer holidays in the years previously and had done a good bit of pony racing; his first ride pony racing was a winner too.

"I'm delighted for Ryan and for Sport Racing Club who leased her six weeks ago and they have been a very lucky syndicate for me. She is in-foal and only has another month left to run."
