British trainer Mark Johnston improved his already impressive strike-rate at Dundalk as Take Ten powered to an all-the-way success in the Crowne Plaza Race & Stay Package Handicap.

Greg Fairley had the Bahamian Bounty gelding (9-2) straight on the front end and won going away by three lengths from fellow raider Noverre To Go

Fairley said: "He's a big improver for being gelded. Again I was given an easy lead here. You might see more of us coming back."

Gary Carroll moved to 35 winners for the season, just one behind Ben Curtis in the engrossing race for the apprentice title, as Tony Martin's Redera (13-2) took the Fairways Race, Stay & Golf Package Handicap.< Dahindar (5-1) under Padraig Beggy led a one-two for Eddie Lynam in thebookings At dundalkstadium.com Handicap, showing a nice turn of foot to come home best of all and deny stablemate Arcadian Dream in the mile event.

The winner had been easy to back, but Lynam said: "We always thought he was a good horse and he's come back and started to show it now. He did it well and was always the winner of the race."< Joe Eile (7-2) just held on to land a valuable success in the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Maiden.

Keagan Latham's mount hit the front a furlong and a half from home but was all out at the line to hold the fast-finishing Dazzle Them

The win landed a 10,000 euro bonus for owners the HB Partnership, and Shane Lyons, brother and assistant trainer to Ger Lyons, said: "He has been a consistent sort apart from on soft ground at Fairyhouse.

"We were really fighting for that bonus to help the owners through the year.

"The horse will have a nice break now and will come back in the spring."

There was another tight finish in the Crowne Plaza Leading Jockey & Trainer Championship Maiden as 7-1 chance An Saighdiur held the late lunge of Little Luxury for Andrew Slattery and Declan McDonogh.

Slattery said: "He went wrong in the summer and has done nothing all year. I thought he would win today though."
