DOCTOR Sardonicus opened his account at the third time of asking when taking a seven-furlong maiden at Lingfield this evening.
The son of Dutch Art has improved with every start and showed a likeable attitude to win under Jamie Spencer.
Doctor Saronicus broke well from the stalls and soon adopted a position at the head of affairs.
Jamie secured the 'golden highway' up the stand's rail and gradually upped the tempo.
Between Wickets put up a challenge inside the final furlong but Doctor Saronicus was too strong, passing the post half a length to the good.
Gabrial The Duke made it a double on the day with a game success in the seven-furlong claimer at Leicester.
