Happy Dreams realised at Limerick for the McDonaghs Two and half miles around Limerick is a good fit for Happy Dreams and the bottom weight landed his third, and most valuable, course and distance success in the Campion Insurance Tim Duggan Memorial Handicap Chase. Ridden by Mark McDonagh for his grandfather Michael, the French-bred was given a patient steer and led between the final two fences to beat Glengouly by three and three quarter lengths. Winning owner/trainer McDonagh, also successful at Limerick on St Stephen's Day with Chainofconsequence, said: "That is my second winner this week and we have been lucky. This is his third win at Limerick and he loves it here. He was well-in at the bottom of the weights and young Mark gave him a lovely ride. "We had a metal manufacturing business in Shannon and I found the sport was a great way of getting to know customers. We are racing a long time now and this has been a good week, although you'd need it. "The horses were going ok at home, are happy but I never think we will win as everyone else does too! I'm very happy with what we achieved this week and when you get a winner everyone is happy - the guys in the yard are much more interested in their work and everyone feels a lot better."
