THE Irish-bred horse Endless Drama, runner-up in the Irish 2000 Guineas in 2015, landed the Group 2 Easter Cup for trainer Tony Pike over 1,600 metres at Ellerslie on Saturday.

The Loup De Vega horse was kept away from the early speed. Rolling off the rail at the 300 with a clear sight of the line ahead of him, Leith Innes kept Endless Drama on-task as the pair won by a neck from the fast finishing Elusive City gelding Watch This Space and the Savabeel mare Yearn.
