After race at Dundalk Fri, 15th Oct, 2021 (1st)

I’m delighted for the (Erindale) syndicate and that’s their first winner with us. They have been very patient. He’s in the sales at Goffs and I’m not sure if we can find something in the meantime or if they would like to keep him on. We’ve run him over a variety of trips and this was his first time over six. I was aggressive from the draw as he stays a bit further.
