High Altitude and Aaron Mackay continue in flying form

High Altitude (5/2 out to 100/30 favourite) made it a quick hat-trick when triumphing in the P&M Green Energy Cottages Handicap (division two) at Bellewstown.

Aaron Mackay is also swiftly making a name for himself and he was aboard his fourth winner when for his boss John Murphy, he went by the line two and a half lengths to the good on High Altitude.

The dual Killarney victor accounted for Popsicle and Caesar’s Comet.

Thankfully previous race winner, Charlie O’Dwyer, was reportedly up and okay after a spill from Ollie Bang

“He's a brilliant horse, they don't make many like him, he's very very tough. He's seriously genuine and we're delighted to have him,” said Murphy's son George.

“That's his grade and that's why we ran him back quickly. When he goes up he'll probably find it tough in the next grade.

“He's done enough for this year anyway and we're delighted with him. He's deserves a bit of a break now.”

C.G. O'Dwyer, rider of Ollie Bang, trained by H.Rogers, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount's saddle slipped, lost his irons and unseated in the straight.

M.A. Gallagher, rider of Ebony Belle trained by Patrick Martin, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount never travelled.
