Sign From Above trained by Peter Fahey, won the Lane Family Memorial Handicap to provide Dylan Brown McMonagle with his third winner of the afternoon.
The 10/3 joint-favourite came from off the pace to lead over a furlong out and accounted for Killeemore Lad by two lengths.
"He is a real family horse, runs in Ber's colours and Kate (daughter) rides him out so it is great," said Fahey.
"He'll mix away between flat and hurdles and last year he ran two races in Galway so we'll work back from that now.
"Dylan said he appreciated the step up in distance on that quicker ground although when he won at Galway last year, it was soft enough towards the end of the week so I don't think he is ground-dependent.
"He is a lovely horse who will continue to pay his way and Dylan is riding brilliantly."
