Tynamite makes it 2 for Marnane at Dundalk

Alfredo Arcano set the ball in motion for David Marnane in the previous race and he quickly doubled up in the LMFM Dual Race Night Friday 3rd May Handicap with Tynamite at Dundalk.

Oisin Orr was aboard Alfredo Arcano but it was Mark Gallagher that stepped in for the spin on Tynamite and the Elnadim gelding here took his score to 2 from 19.

The successful chestnut upstaged Bellick and Red All Star by half a length and a length and a half prompting Marnane to say: "Six is his trip, I think, and I've been running him over too far — that's trainer error.

“He needs things to fall right and Mark gave him a fantastic ride. He did exactly what we wanted, we just wanted to ride him for luck, and I told him if he got stopped it was my fault. He gave him a brilliant ride.

“He's a 40-60 handicapper that needs things to fall right. It's only his fourth run for us, he's won now and I think he can win again. He has the ability to win again anyway.

“He might be alright on the turf as well, he had some good runs on the turf.”
