Nicola Burns was seen to good effect as she got Hastily home in the seven furlong handicap at Dundalk.

Tom McGuinness' charge was produced to challenge passing the two pole and grabbed a lead before the furlong marker.

Burns kept her mount going in the closing stages to secure a half-length success at odds of 7/1.

It was a third career success for the Charm Spirit filly, who last won for connections over in Chepstow in August 2023.

Burns said: "She jumped off well, she got a good position and I was happy. She was travelling away with me.

"She did get a bit lonely coming up the straight, but she did kick on herself. She enjoyed it.

"She was game and she kept fighting until the end."

It was the claimer's sixth winner and she added: "It is going great and I'd like to thank everyone for supporting me, and Tom for giving me the spin on her."
