Rock records third Dundalk win Macadam's Rock bounced back to winning ways on his return to action at Dundalk this evening. The Hilary McLoughlin-trained gelding was making his first start since last June and was an easy-to-back 16/1 shot. Joey Sheridan produced his mount to challenge between horses inside the final furlong and he got on top in the closing stages to post a length win over Mullacash Buzz. The winner was scoring for the third time over course and distance. Sheridan said: "Fair play to Martin (Ferris) and Hilary now, they said to me they thought he had a chance and to ride him cold. "It all worked out well. I was able to kind of slipstream them down to past the half furlong pole and he won well in the end. "It was a fair effort especially after such a long lay-off. I think he will have a good spell. "Fair play to Martin and Hilary, they have been good to me lately and giving me plenty of rides so it is nice to get a first winner of the year for them. "Hopefully, I might ride plenty for them this year - we might strike up a partnership." (Quotes by Michael Graham)
