Hugh Horgan completed a treble at Dundalk tonight when the Shane Crawley-trained Dreams Fled Away ran out a convincing winner of the finale.
The Elzaam gelding went to post a 7/1 shot in the second division of the mile-and-a-half handicap and was produced with a strong run to claim front-runner Power Drive inside the final furlong.
He was pulling away at the line to record a cosy three length win over 5/1 favourite Areana
It was a first career treble for Horgan, who also rode out his 7lb claim earlier on the card aboard Magellan Strait He had also partnered San Andreas to success at odds of 1/20.
Crawley said: "He probably didn't see out the (two-mile) trip the last day, but he saw it out there tonight.
"Hugh rode a filly for me, Trishuli River, and I was really impressed with that.
"I know he might be winning with good-calibre horses with Joseph (O'Brien) and doing everything right, but I think he is an old head on young shoulders.
"The feedback is very good and even there today we were last into the stalls because we can be awkward, and he was trotting him around behind the stalls to keep the horse warm - he is thinking the whole time.
"I'd rather have him on my side than not!
"If he (Dreams Fled Away) eats up and we give him an easy week, and if everything is good, we'll have a look at the calendar and see what is over 1m4f."
