The Ger Lyons trained Joe Eile under a well timed challenge from Niall McCullagh, recorded his third career win in the Matthews.ie Handicap at Dundalk this evening.

McCullagh moved the gelding to the front a furlong out before staying on well to defeat Mountain Coral by a length and a half.

Afterwards Lyons' brother Shane Lyons said “he has been knocking on the door recently and was unlucky in a couple of runs when he was only beaten a few lengths.” “Seven furlongs is his trip and Niall knows him well and gave him the perfect ride. We'll try to win a nice handicap during the summer with him and hopefully he'll pay his way for his owners (Joe Horn & Joe Bracken from Clane).”
