Lundy went one better than on debut when running out an impressive winner of the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Auction Maiden at Leopardstown.
The Fastnet Rock colt, who holds an entry in the Group One Phoenix Stakes, had made a fine introduction at Dundalk last month when second to highly-regarded stablemate Caravaggio.
Sent off the 6-5 favourite he was always handy under Donnacha O'Brien and quickened up smartly a furlong and a half out, putting the race to bed.
Dermot Weld's Dapper Man and the Ger Lyons-trained Medicine Jack made pleasing debuts in second and third, but the Aidan O'Brien-trained winner scored by three lengths.
There was a huge gamble which went astray on Darren Bunyan's Hit The Bid, backed from 25-1 overnight into 4-1 but after showing up early he faded close home.
Joseph O'Brien, who effectively trains the winner, said from the family's Piltown base: "He's always worked well and showed plenty of pace. As he stepped up his work he got better. He ran well behind Caravaggio and finished out his race well.
"The Coventry, Windsor Castle and Norfolk Stakes are options and if you put a gun to my head now I would probably say the Coventry.
"Today was six furlongs and that is probably his trip as there is plenty of pace in him.
"He could go for the Marble Hill or a Listed race at Naas, we would look at in between as that is the natural progression as there are no other real races for him."
