Timeline going forward fast

Johnny Murtagh never seemed to have a moments worry up top and it was likely something similar for her backers and connections as Majestic Timeline (7/4) justified favouritism in the opening DKIT Students Union Race Night Handicap at Dundalk.

Quickly on the speed, the now dual course and distance was asked to go and ward off the danger posed by Sylvan Mist from the furlong pole.

This was a task the progressive daughter of Majestic Missile quickly accomplished and at the finish she was a length and three parts to the good.

Adrian Joyce handles Majestic Timeline for Mark Kerrigan from Tullow in County Carlow and the County Roscommon-based trainer said: "She's done it well and she's improving all the time. Johnny rode her before and said he'd like to ride her again and it's great to have him back on board.

"She might come back here on the 13th of December and we'll probably target some of the nice handicaps next year." (AM & EM)
