Money Dancer grabs the spoils for Meade and Keane Noel Meade and Colin Keane teamed up with the runner-up in race one at the Curragh and went a place better with Money Dancer in the fourth contest - the Finlay Volvo Fillies & Mares Maiden over seven furlongs. This 16/1 newcomer travelled nicely on the heels of the leaders a quarter of a mile out and was switched to challenge a furlong down. Mayfair attempted to go for home, but she faced a determined Money Dancer who wore her down in the closing stages. She wandered slightly, but Keane drove the Belardo filly home by a neck from the 13/8 favourite. Finsceal Luas rounded out the placings at 5/1. Meade said: “She behaved herself better here than she does at home. She’s very bouncy and you have to be wary about her, but she’s always showed us plenty. “We got her at the backend of last year and the couple of bits of work that she’s done we’ve liked her. We hadn’t really dipped her because she was so bouncy and I wasn’t sure what she would find, but she found plenty. “Colin thought she could go another furlong. “We’ll try and go for a Listed race with her and see how we get on. “The two-year-old (Rowdy Yeats) ran well in the first race. He was just a little bit weak in the last furlong which you would kind of expect. “He surprised us how forward he came and, everything we asked him to do, he did it. “He was probably beaten by a good horse.” Additional reporting by Alan Magee
