Review dundalk 25th Sep
Willie Supple took the riding honours at Dundalk with a sparkling 256-1 treble.
Supple started the evening by partnering two Paul Deegan-trained winners, with Moonreach finally breaking his duck in the "Buy A Racing Post Yearling Bonus Candidate" Auction Maiden.
Having run well from a bad draw on his last visit to the track, he had earlier been fifth in a Listed race behind Our Jonathan, form which saw him backed into 4-5 favouritism.
"He had the form on the book and he was entitled to win today. He was a little unlucky here the last day in the Listed Race when he didn't get the run of the race," said Deegan.
"He's a good horse, we've no definite plans for him but we might send him to Dubai after Christmas."
The pair only had to wait 30 minutes before Dream Deer 9-2) provided them with a double in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Premier Nursery Handicap and he also boosted the form of Kevin Ryan's Our Jonathan having been third in the same race as his stablemate.
"That was a good performance considering he was carrying top weight. We think an awful lot of the lad," added Deegan.
"He can change gears very quickly and he's a very sharp horse. We might go for the Birdcatcher at Naas next."
Supple's final winner came on Yvonne Dunleavy's Oversighted (25-1) in the Dundalk Democrat Handicap.
"It's great he won, he's eight years of age and he's a big pet at home," said Dunleavy.
Dundalk isn't the same without a winner for Ger Lyons and he obliged his followers with Kalanetta (14-1) under Keagan Latham.
"I have to give all the credit to Keagan, he was slowly away and he had to keep switching her from the inside to the outside. He gave her a very good ride to get up on the line," said Lyons.
