Slade Power battled through the testing conditions to lift the feature Belgrave Stakes at Fairyhouse.

Edward Lynam's progressive young sprinter got the better of the much more experienced five-year-old Arctic to take the Listed contest in determined fashion after travelling sweetly throughout the race.

Wayne Lordan produced Slade Power towards the centre of the course to make his challenge and the 11-4 shot responded gamely to win by half a length in a blanket finish, with Santo Padre in third spot.

Bloodstock Al: Peace At Last out 1/2-sister to Fly To The Stars (G1) and dam of Fallen For You (Gr1). Traces back to Highlight dam of the Queen's Highclere
Bloodstock Al: German 2000 Guineas success yesterday for Peace At Last. Son of Oasis Dream has a regal pedigree fitting of a Classic winner.
Bloodstock Al: @t_woots Hope you're right, he's in my 10 to Follow! Pedigree suggests he's a miler so hopefully Royal Ascot next stop.
Bloodstock Al: Kentucky Dynamite's 2 stakes wnrs (Surenses wnr Lion d'Anvers the other), plus 2 other stakes-placed rnrs from a 3yo crop of only 33 foals.
