The young Donegal rider finished second on Parent’s Prayer, a 5/1 shot, behind the 12/1 winner Epona Plays with Sziget back in third.

McAteer finished just a neck ahead of fellow Donegal jockey Dylan Browne McMonagle who finished in second - having led at one stage - on the 15/2 Michael Mulvaney trained Silver Service.
