Dgalwaygallivantor (11/2) was another winner for the in-form duo of Gavin Cromwell and Keith Donoghue in the DennPart Beginners Chase.
A winner over hurdles at Cork in November and having his second start over the larger obstacles, the Dansant gelding came through to lead two out and a huge leap at the last propelled him to a six lengths success over Ceanndana
Donoghue said of the Gallivantors Syndicate-owned five-year-old: "We went a good gallop and I thought Sam's horse was the horse (Ewing, Erigmoor to beat and I was chasing him the whole way. He was getting an easy enough lead and I was going as hard as I wanted to.
"I came to the third last and he just came onto the bridle and I was actually there too soon then.
"He does (go well on that ground), it is lovely ground today and they have done a great job on it.
"It is a 102 beginners' and he's won a hurdle. He's a big horse and I think he can progress. Hopefully, keep it smalland he might keep progressing.
"This day two weeks ago I came back riding with my thumb and I've had 11 winners in two weeks. A couple of years ago, I wouldn't have had 11 rides for a season! "
"Confidence and riding for the likes of Gavin has kickstarted me again. Gavin is doing unbelievable - if you haven't got the horses, you can't do it. He always wants more, he is never happy!"
