Manning home to get Golden Shoe home Course and distance winner Golden Shoe (9s this morning into 7s) gained the fourth success of his life when prevailing under the jet-setting Kevin Manning in the www.dundalkstadium.com Handicap. Manning rode Paene Magnus when he finished down the field at Meydan yesterday but the Jim Bolger stable jockey showed no signs of jet-lag as he drove the victorious Footstepsinthesand gelding (had been reluctant to enter the stalls) home by a length and a half from Suehail. David Marnane trains Suehail and he also has Maundy Money (20s this morning into 10s) under his care. That veteran finished fourth. Favourite, Fastidious disappointed, beating only one home. He was found to be post race normal but Luke Dempsey reported his mount ran flat. Jim Gorman trains Golden Shoe and he said: "The owner, Mrs Foley is ill in hospital. Hopefully this cheers her up. She's a great patron of mine. "Everything went to suit him tonight. He's really a mile horse even though he's won over seven at Galway. "He's tough and honest and we'll look for similar opportunities for him." (MG & EM)
