Go On Murt made it back-to-back all-weather successes when running out a convincing winner of the seven-furlong handicap at Dundalk.
Jessica Harrington 's charge had struck at the venue just last Thursday and defied a 8lb rise for that victory.
Fran Berry produced his mount to lead at the furlong pole and he galloped on well to post a two-and-a-quarter length win over Spunky
The winner had been backed at 7/4 this morning and was sent off 5/4 favourite on course.
"That was straight forward. He's a three-year-old and is probably just improving a bit," said Harrington.
"The idea is to go to Galway if the ground is good but if it's not good we'll wait. We'll look for something over seven or a mile, whatever comes up."
