The Bog Bank strikes for McCourt Tom McCourt's The Bog Bank (13/2) displayed her toughness when bringing up her fourth career success in the second division of the 47-65 handicap. The first reserve was placed twice in Bellewstown towards the end of last week and stayed on well to strike the front inside the final furlong here. She went on by a length from Numidia (11/2) with Boadicea Belle (11/1) back in third. Jockey James Ryan said: "She is as tough as nails isn't she? She just loves the game. "Lisa rides her every day at home and she was running away with her as usual. "She won this race last year and was in great order. She ran crackers in her two races at Bellewstown and was just running into one. Delighted to get her head back in front. "She is nearly too consistent for her own good, she tries her hardest every time and she is always there or thereabouts."
