Dark Street (4/1) registered a fourth career win — all at Dundalk, today when landing the Put The Fun In Fundraising At Dundalk Handicap for owner/trainer Luke Comer and jockey Paddy Harnett.
Previously successful three times over today's 1m2f distance at the Co Louth course, the six-year-old today scored over 1m4f when beating runner-up Picpoul by a neck.
Comer's assistant trainer Jim Gorman said "he (Harnett) took up the initiative early on on him because they just weren't going fast enough. He gave him a very, very good ride.
"A mile and two (furlongs) at a fast pace or 1m4f is no problem to him and he loves it here. I'd love Dundalk to keep going, but we have to play with what ball we are given. The horses are running great, they are all there and in the prize money.”
