Ross O’Sullivan sent out his second winner of the weekend at Listowel when Dutch Glory (11/2) landed the first division of the James Collins Memorial Handicap.
Siobhan Rutledge ’s mount had only a few rivals behind approaching the straight but made good headway on the outer to lead over a furlong out and went away to beat Sunset Nova by two and a quarter lengths.
O’Sullivan, on the mark with Warrior Brave yesterday, trains the four-year-old for Aloysius Harney and said: "Around here you have to be some way 'handy' as it is very hard to come from behind but she blew the start.
"It wasn't the plan but it actually turned out the same as the night she won at Dundalk previously, as she was three-quarters of the way back and came home well.
"Plan B worked out great and she is owned by my head man Tom Harney who is going out with Siobhan (Rutledge) so it is kept in the family.
"She wears ear plugs, can be tense and lives outside at home and doesn't like much fussing or any hassle. My horses are all running really well and we fancied her today."
