Innishannon jockey Wayne Lordan has enjoyed a weekend to remember. 

Fresh from a Naas treble yesterday the Cork jockey enjoyed a super Sunday at Leopardstown when replicating yesterday's hat-trick for Ballydoyle.

Lordan landed the Leopardstown feature on Delacroix who validated his Epsom Derby claims when landing odds of 1/3 in the Group 3 Cashel Palace Hotel Derby Trial Stakes. 

With Ryan Moore riding at Longchamp - Lordan took full advantage at the Foxrock venue also winning on Roosevelt and Butterfly Wings.

Lordan had enjoyed a sizzling Saturday at Naas with three winners for Ballydoyle who've enjoyed a magical week in Ireland, England and France. The pick of Wayne's Saturday trio was the much heralded two year old Albert Einstein who made an impressive debut.

The son of Wootton Bassett was the heavily supported 1/2 favourite in the six furlong Naas maiden. 

He quickened up in real style to beat Evening Blues who'd run well at The Curragh.He looks the obvious Ballydoyle juvenile for the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot in June.
