Sounds Of Spring was produced with a well judged ride under Niall McCullagh to take the concluding Play The Tote Exacta On Every Race Handicap at the Curragh.

Well into stride and tracking the pace on the stands side, McCullagh bided his time before wearing down leader Cnodian inside the final furlong. Hot Whispers stayed on well for third but well backed favourite Mymomentintime faded out of contention.

“Niall won on him last year in October and he's had a few wins in October, he revels in the ground and handles the deep ground very well,” said Condon.

“He was well drawn today in a smaller field, he ran here two weeks in a 30 runner race, and Niall was able to follow the ones he wanted. He followed Billy and followed Willie's horse as well.

“We know the horse has a bit of ability and he's relatively fresh as we haven't over-raced him during the summer.

“I'm delighted as Mr Ng is obviously a big supporter of ours and has been for quite a while so it's nice to get another winner for him.

“He may run on the last day of the season at Naas, he's run well there in the past before. There is a five furlong 0-90 and we'll have to see if he gets into the weights proper. If not this might be his last run.

“As he's been fresh during the summer we'd like to go again if the opportunity presents.”
