Aisling Oscar landed a gamble when overcoming '0000' career form-figures to win Dundalk's View Restaurant At Dundalk Stadium Handicap today, for owner/trainer Craig O'Neill and jockey Danny Sheehy.

The son of Rajasinghe had finished behind 51 horses and defeated just seven in four previous runs but today debuted in handicaps racing from the basement rating of 47.

Backed from 14/1 this morning and returned 6/1, Aisling Oscar racing fourth, before moving to challenge in the home straight, with the pair edging past Mary Bagot inside the final furlong for a half-length win.

Kildare-based owner/trainer O'Neill was leading up the winner and jockey Sheehy said "I think it is really just a case of the penny starting to drop. I suppose a small field and a light weight is probably a big help as well.

"Hopefully, he can come on from that and improve.

"Craig said he would have a chance and that he is after coming on from his previous runs, so he was spot on in fairness to him."
