Seanie beats Jamesie for Marnane 1-2 Seanie overcame four down the field 'duck-egg' efforts to defeat stablemate and similarly owned Jamesie in the Book Your Christmas Party At Dundalk Handicap at Dundalk. The David Marnane trained and Damian Lavelle owned pair pulled well clear inside the final furlong with Seanie holding on for a half length success. A delighted Marnane later said “things don't normally go to plan but that's about as good as it gets! “Seanie is in the Newmarket Horses In Training Sale next Tuesday; he's a talented horse but nothing has really gone right for him all year. Jamesie will go to Dubai if he goes up 4lbs (putting him on a rating of 100).” By Thomas Weekes, quotes from Alan Magee
