Ger Lyons continued his impressive strike-rate when Neo Soul got off the mark, at the fifth attempt, in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF 2-Y-0 Race in Dundalk.

In the absence of morning favourite Andreas Vesalius, Neo Soul was sent off 8/15 favourite and,ridden by Gary Carroll, had to dig deep in a prolonged battle with J J Jumbo to get home by a head, despite swishing his tail a few times.
