Elbader, unfortunate to come up against the impressive Siringas last time, got off the mark at the sixth attempt when successful in the EBF Maiden at Roscommon yesterday.
Trounced 13 lengths at Gowran Park, Elbader paid Jim Bolger's filly a compliment when beating Turtleback by three lengths under Pat Smullen, with Turtle Dancer, the 7 to 4 favourite, only fourth.
Representing his father Dermot, Mark Weld said: "I thought it was only a case of turning up as this fellow has run well and had the form. I would say that we will find a winners' race for him now."
Kevin Manning was suspended for one day (Sept 20th) for using his whip with excessive frequency on the Jim Bolger-trained Marefonic, the narrow winner of the Glenamaddy Fillies EBF Maiden.
The John Oxx-trained Khairambar, the well-backed favourite, made all the running under Johnny Murtagh to beat Handsome Bop by three lengths in the Tully Maiden.
The Derrinstown Stud Apprentice Handicap was divided and Pat Flynn took both races - a 53 to 1 double shared with Danny Grant.
Ishkasullus had little difficulty in beating outsider Back To Bolgers by three lengths in the opening division, while Pilgrim Star, third at Downpatrick, bounced back to form in the second leg, winning by four lengths.
