Dinard Rose and Nathan Crosse© Photo Healy Racing
Nathan Crosse completed a Greenmount Park double in the finale, on the well-backed favourite Dinard Rose (15/8 into 11/8) in the Follow Limerick Racecourse On Twitter Handicap.
Owned by Mrs Ted Walsh, better known to all and sundry as Nina Carberry, and trained by Noel Meade, the Champs Elysees filly was following up on a Bellewstown win from Thursday evening.
That form got a boost when the runner-up from ‘the hill,’ Millford Sound, triumphed at Naas yesterday.
Millford Sound only won a nose but it was altogether more smooth for Dinard Rose here as she accounted for Shamad by three lengths.
Crosse had been aboard John Feane’s earlier winner Dragons Call too.
"Andy Slattery won on her at Bellewstown and had to ride for his father today (on Sharjah so it was great to get the ride," said Crosse.
"She is going lovely at the moment - we were worried about the shorter trip but they went a nice gallop and it suited her."
