Dundalk course specialist claims another win

Hes Our Music won his ninth race at Dundalk this evening, and his tenth in total, when landing the opening Dundalk Business Club 2017 Claiming Race for new trainer Dick Donohoe.

The son of Oratorio had previously won each of previous nine races for trainer Pat Flynn, but having been claimed by Donohoe following his latest win at the Co Louth venue in November, was today winning under capable claimer Denis Lenihan.

Afterwards Donohoe stated “he's a grand horse and loves that all-weather track.

“He was prolific for Pat Flynn but has been a bit disappointing for us up until now but he's done the job tonight.

“He was tough out in front - I thought they might get past him because he didn't finish great the last day here but he stuck at it well.

“I don't think there is much left for him here now. He'll come back in the autumn, I suppose.”
