Lyons and Murtagh record double

Johnny Murtagh and Ger Lyons recorded a quick double this evening when winning The Liberty International Underwriters Handicap with Slam Dunk owned by Glenview House Stud.

Lyons reported afterwards, "He's in the horses in training sale at Newmarket next week so we'll see how we get on. Johnny [Murtagh] said to me he has improved plenty and how far would he have won over 6f! He's a good honest horse and Johnny felt that if we held on to him that there would be plenty of races for him at Dubai."
