Dodgy another for in-form connections Dodgybingo supplemented the recent gains on the Flat at Navan by the same connections Wingingit, when landing the Mulberry Restaurant At Breaffy Hurdle with Sean Flanagan up in the familiar Mrs Cahill silks. The second event at Ballinrobe soon saw Flanagan in a forcing role on the Noel Meade-trained 11/2 shot, and that took him all the way to a six and a half length win over Linger. Well-backed favourite Sword Fighter finished a length and a half back in third. "He loved the ground and jumped brilliant. He doesn't like when they get around him," commented Meade in the aftermath. "That was ideal, sharp track, jumped great, fast ground, four-year-old's only, bob's your uncle! "He might come back here again, wherever the ground is fast. If the handicapper takes it literally he will be in trouble, but I don't know how literally he will take it. "He is a summer horse and we will keep going with him. He will probably have a run on the Flat somewhere as well, although jumping does seem to help him a lot. "He never made one mistake today. It's nice to get a winner on the board at the start of the season. We just got clipped yesterday with Net D'Ecosse, another stride and he was up." C. Brassil, rider of Ineffable trained by Rodger Sweeney, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount jumped right throughout. (DM & EM)
