Spin Of A Coin under Sam James, gained a second career win in the Horseware Owners & Trainers Bar launch 24th February Handicap at Dundalk tonight.

The son of Oratorio raced in mid-division before being produced to lead inside the final furlong before recording a three parts of a length win over Prince Of Fire

Afterwards Lynam said “he did it well enough and got the trip. He has an awful habit of going left so I told Sam (James) that – it’s a bit like telling someone a dog bits but he’ll still bite!”

“Myself and Ger Lyons both liked him at the Sales (November 2009 at Tattersalls) but I was the one who had to wait two years for him to win!”
