Wayne Hassett brought his tally for the season to 30 winners when partnering Ciaran Murphy’s Titanium to take the eight-furlong handicap at Leopardstown on Sunday.

The win put Hassett at the head of affairs in the apprentice title race, his third win in four days putting him one winner clear of Adam Caffrey with James Ryan the remining championship contender one winner further back in third place.

Titanium, a 9/2 chance, led a furlong from the finish to win by a length from 4/1 shot Orandi, ridden for trainer Cathy O’Leary by Sam Coen.

A length and a quarter was the winning distance as Master Dunraven took the 10-furlong handicap for Ben Coen and trainer Johnny Murtagh.
