Danny Sheehy rode his second winner when again teaming up with trainer Adrian Keatley to take the spoils with Mo Henry in the Crowne Plaza Hotel Race & Stay Handicap.
Mo Henry came through from mid-division to get to the leaders two furlongs out. He was ridden in second over a furlong out and he kept on well under pressure to lead close home. At the line the 9/2 shot was a neck and a head up on Strategic Force and More Kudos
"It's great to get a win out of him and it'll keep the owners (the Shevlin-Whelan Syndicate) happy for a while," said Keatley.
"He's a bit of a monkey but is well up to it at that level when he puts it in. Hopefully we can get another one or two out of him.
"Danny's 10lb claim is very valuable but unfortunately he won't have it for long."
The Stewards informed Mark Fahey, trainer that Boxer Dunford would have to be recertified before being declared to run from stalls again.
