John Oxx has yet another exciting prospect on his hands after 4-1 shot Space Telescope made a winning debut in a maiden at Leopardstown on Monday.

The son of Galileo, from the family of Generous, was always going nicely under Mick Kinane and stretched clear inside the final furlong to win cosily.

This will prove an informative maiden to follow with fellow debutants Toraidhe (14-1), trained by Jim Bolger, and Trojan War (14-1), a son of Montjeu in the care of Aidan O'Brien, filling the minor placings.

O'Brien had four runners in the race and another of that quartet, Yankee Doodle, caught the eye as he finished strongly once the penny dropped.
