McGivern bags third winner in four days

Corey McGivern registered a third winner in four days today, as the 7lb claimer steered 16/1 chance Dartington to win Wexford's BoyleSports Novice Hurdle for trainer Gordon Elliott.

Previously based with Lucy Wadham in Newmarket, McGivern rode two of Gordon Elliott's three winners at Downpatrick on Sunday and today on Dartington, a son of leading flat stallion Siyouni, won by a length and a half from Mind Your Money

Afterwards McGivern said "we were hoping for a big run, he has been doing everything right at home and you're always confident coming here riding one for Gordon. He travelled really well and just jumped himself into the race. That's my seventh winner."
