Casela scores for Treacy
Casela Park rewarded Sean Treacy's faith in him when running out a convincing winner of the seven-furlong handicap at Dundalk.
The Elnadim gelding was always prominent under Billy Lee, and kicked on from two furlongs out.
7/4 favourite Russian View didn't get the clearest of runs but came through in the final furlong to chase the winner home.
"I bought him out of Sylvester Kirk's. He won in England and is a tough horse but he bolted a few times over there and it was recommended they get rid of him," said Treacy.
"He's a completely genuine horse. I ride him myself. I went to bed last night cause I thought I had pneumonia but it was just from trying to hold him!"
"You just have to try and hold on to him. Billy is very good on him and rode him first time at the Curragh when he got him to the start nice and settled.
"I have to thank the stewards for letting me go down early. It gives him a chance to win his race by not getting wound up.
"I'll certainly be back here again. The 13th is lucky for me as I got married on the 13th - sure I couldn't go wrong!"
