Chariot collects on second outing Sea Chariot stepped forward from his promising debut run to open his account at Dundalk this evening. The John Murphy-trained gelding had been sixth behind Stormy Entry in a 'winners' race here last month and struck trying maiden company tonight. Scott McCullagh tracked the leaders on the Gregorian gelding and produced him to challenge down the straight. The 10/3 shot grabbed a narrow lead passing the furlong pole and kept on well in the closing stages to record a half-length victory over Artemis Jones. McCullagh said: "He's a very well-balanced, clear-winded horse. He obviously improved a lot from the first day. "I thought he quickened up there and put the race to bed. He had a little look when he got there but the penny is still only dropping. "He's a fine horse and moves very well and went through the race at ease and quickened up good. "He might get a mile when he strengthens up. "He's one to look forward to, he is a fine prospect going forward." (Quotes by Michael Graham)
