Strategic Heights landed a punt (7/2 in the morning into 7/4) under Fran Berry in the opening DKIT Students Union Race Night Handicap at Dundalk.
The Johnny Feane-trained winner, and Majestic Timeline looked like they were going plenty fast enough up front but the pair kept up the gallop with Strategic Heights edging it nicely at the death by a length and a half.
"He won well and he loves it around here. He ran a blinder last week but he was probably too far back," stated Feane.
"He's versatile over five or six and we'll try and find another race for him.
"We might go to France with him. There are claimers over there for him. He'd go on the all-weather maybe at Cagnes-Sur-Mer in January." (MG & EM)
