Baizically for John ‘Shark’ Hanlon & John Cullen came home a convincing six length winner of the Bagenalstown Beginners Chase at 7/4jfav.

The other 7/4jfav Doc O’Donnell, travelled smoothly entering the straight and looked set for victory. However he hit the second last and his impetus was lost. The winner took full advantage of that mistake and went clear approaching the last.

Doc O’Donnell ridden by Davy Condon tired badly after his blunder and could only finish third with Pretty Happy separating the top two in the market at the finish.

‘He is a lovely chasing type and I think he will be a better horse on better ground. It probably was the best race ever but he couldn’t have done it any better. On his last run he was entitled to win and he will continue going over the summer‘.
