Shadow Seven becomes Joseph O'Brien's 101st flat winner of 2018 Shadow Seven was his trainer Joseph O'Brien's 101st flat winner of the calendar year at Dundalk this evening as the four year old landed the Crowne Plaza Leading Jockey&Trainer Handicap (div 1) under Classic winning jockey Shane Foley. Foley, winner of this year's Irish 2,000 Guineas on Romanised, was himself notching winner number 64 since January 1 and later stated “he had a good run up here the last day over a mile-and-a-quarter and we went very slow, and he was a bit slow out of the gates. “He was a lot sharper today and I was able to get a position. Going a mile-and-a-half, and a nice pace, suited him. “He's a grand horse and he'll go further too in time. He likes the surface so you'll see him here again I'd say.” Quotes from Gary Carson
