ROSALLION pounced to pip stablemate Haatem in a thrilling finish to the Tattersalls Irish 2,000 Guineas.
English trainer Richard Hannon's pair were level with 100 yards to race, but the Curragh's 10-11 favourite found extra to come out on top.
His late surge under Sean Levey was hard luck on Haatem, who travelled best and breezed into the lead with two furlongs left.
Jamie Spencer's mount pinched several lengths on their pursuers, led by River Tiber, chasing a 13th title for Aidan O'Brien.
However Rosallion's turn of foot made all the difference and he swooped for a head victory, in owner Sheikh Mohammed Obaid AI Maktoum's silks.
