The Dancing Lord gained a sixth career success in the Crowne Plaza Leading Jockey & Trainer Championship Apprentice Handicap (DIV I) at Dundalk today, scoring a second win for his new trainer John Geoghegan.
Previously successful four times in Britain having won his first race at the now defunct Folkestone, the son of Imperial Dancer joined Geoghegan this year and was following up his Leopardstown win in July.
The winner was ridden to win today by Robbie Downey and afterwards Geoghegan stated “he'll keep coming back here as long as he's fit and well. He's paying his way and is very consistent and if I'd a few more like him I'd be right!"
