Lough good enough to score after long break Lough Ferrib hadn't seen action since the Listowel Festival but that 231 day absence proved no barrier to success for the nine-year-old son of Accordion, who registered the third success of his career in the 19th May At Sligo Handicap Hurdle. Owned by the Collar & Tie Syndicate and trained by John Hassett, the 13/2 winner benefited from the departure of Boyney Boy, who fell with Pat Kennedy at the last when still in with every chance. Winning rider, Andrew McNamara said: "I thought he was a bit keen early on but I got a breather into him going up the hill as I hadn't a whole lot of room and he came home well."
