Mr Social kept up the fine recent form of Mark McDonagh when providing the young rider with his fourth winner inside a week in the Storeall Logistics Handicap Hurdle at Tramore.

McDonagh, who rode a double at Sligo last Thursday night, added number three at Downpatrick over the weekend and completed the quartet aboard the Eoin Griffin trained gelding here.

Leading over the second last, Mr Social looked set to be swallowed up on the run to the final flight as a host of challengers queued up in behind.

However, the lightly raced five-year-old found plenty when asked to go and win his race, staying on strongly from the back of the last to hold his rivals at bay.

Eoin Griffin said: "He ran well the last day. The last two furlongs up the hill in Downpatrick just caught him out. We stepped him back in trip here and it seemed to work. The start didn't go according to plan as we had planned to have him handy. He was back in front after little over a circuit, so it all went well in the end.

"He settles well in front, when he is in behind horses he can take a bit of a hold. We are delighted and it's nice to get a winner at your local track. John Paul Kelly is my brother-in-law and he is the managing director of StoreAll who sponsored the race, so it's nice to take a few bob off of him as well!

"We might turn him out again quickly. There is an 80 to 95 at Killarney next week for trainers who haven't had 10 winners in the last season. We will see how he comes out of this but he might go there. We will do the right thing by him anyway."
