Fourth win of the year at Dundalk for Squire Danagher Andy Oliver can have few complaints with the handicapper's treatment of Squire Danagaher who justified 5/4 favouritism in the Halloween Mid-Term Racing Dundalk Handicap over 1m4f. Francis Campbell's Australia gelding was rated 74 when winning a maiden here in January and had since been successful in handicaps off marks of 77 and 79 before gaining his fourth victory of the year at the Co Louth venue off a perch of 85 here. Billy Lee's mount sat second to Psalm on whom Jack Cleary set easy fractions and, after being outpaced when the leader kicked early in the straight, Squire Danagher responded to Lee's urgings to wear down the front-runner close home with a head the margin of victory. Oliver said: “I'm delighted. Billy gave him a great ride, he knows the horse. “He loves it around here, loves the quick ground — that's his main thing. He's in a good vein of form. “He's entered in the horses-in-training sale at Newmarket and that will probably be his next stop. “He's a lovely horse for somebody going forward because he's only starting to get going, a four-year-old stayer who wants quick ground.” Quotes from Gary Carson
