Nam made it two wins from three starts on the polytrack when taking the Dundalk Stadium On Twitter Handicap.
Owned and bred by Helen Mullins and trained by her husband Tom, Niall McCullagh got the hooded Nam home by a length and three parts from Oor Jock
Favourite Eacharn squeezed through for third, a short-head back, whilst Tynamite was finishing off well for fourth, a length and a quarter back.
"It worked out great tonight. The last day I got back a bit far and things just didn't work out," said McCullagh.
"I was worried a little about the draw but we got a nice position and he relaxed well with the hood. He was a bit keen the last day and was maybe a bit fresh.
"Today he was very good, picked up well and finished well. Onwards and upwards. He's a handy little horse and Tom is doing a great job with him."
