Moondharrig continued a trend on the evening when following up a recent course win by taking division one of the Follow Us On Twitter @DundalkStadium Handicap.

The Eoin Doyle-trained gelding opened his account here just over a fortnight ago and followed up off just a 4lb higher mark.

The lightly raced four-year-old was always prominent and Wesley Joyce sent him on early in the straight.

He asserted on the stand side rail a furlong out and kept on really well to beat fellow 100/30 joint favourite Dark Street by three lengths.

The front running Barretstown was a further neck back in third. River Derwent and Aisling Oscar also followed up recent course wins when taking the opening two races on the card.
