On the mark earlier with Sounds Of Heaven in York, Jessica Harrington completed a fine across-the-card double when Yashin swooped late for a narrow and shock win in the Group 3 Saval Beg Levmoss Stakes at Leopardstown.
The 14-1 shot, rated 95 and keen under Shane Foley for most of the journey, challenged down the outside and got up on the line to pip Point King, with Dawn Rising third and 2-5 favourite Emily Dickinson, ante-post favourite for the Ascot Gold Cup, fading tamely, having made most of the running, to finish a well-beaten and disappointing sixth.
