Gordon Elliott saddled a quick double at Fairyhouse when sending out Down Memory Lane to make a successful start under rules in the Ian Smith Memorial (Pro/Am) INH Flat Race.

The Walk In The Park gelding won a point-to-point in good style for Jonathan Fogarty at Umma House last autumn and has since been purchased by JP McManus to join the powerful Cullentra House team.

Derek O’Connor always looked confident on the 5/6 favourite, and he pushed out the five-year-old to assert inside the final furlong beating Mister Pink by four and a half lengths.

Elliott said, “He's a nice horse and I'd imagine we'll leave him alone until next year.

“I think he's nice, I haven't had him that long and we'll put him away now.” Ballykeel (100/30) initiated the double when taking the rated novice chase under Corey McGivern.
