Bravemansgames made a lasting impression when taking the four-year-old maiden at Lingstown at the first time of asking. The debutant son of Brave Mansonnien always travelled with ease behind the leaders and caught the eye travelling very strongly into the contest down along the back straight. Having hit the front jumping three-out, the Donnachadh Doyle-trained gelding quickly stretched clear of the field in the home straight to record an emphatic eight-length success. This €48,000 Derby Sale graduate looks open to plenty of improvement and should progress into a very smart recruit under rules.
