A contest here a fortnight back provided the winner of either divide of the Crowne Plaza Hotel Race & Stay Handicap as half an hour on from Cristy's Call s win (second behind Tetard fourteen days ago), Horsewithnoname (fifth on that occasion) was far too good for the opposition in the second split under Connor King at Dundalk.
The concluding leg of champion apprentice King's famous four-timer at Cork back in August, here Horsewithnoname drew clear in the final furlong to slam Clare Harrier by all of eight lengths.
Winning trainer Tom McCourt stated: "Yer man (King) gets a great tune out of him. I was worried about the inside draw as he doesn't like being crowded but it was lucky that he got out from there.
"He wouldn't be the gutsiest of horses and I'm after getting two more wins out of him than I thought I would!" (MG & EM)
