Tokenomics puts himself firmly in the shop window Tokenomics came from last to first under a confident Luke McAteer to win the Bord Na Mona Recycling Rated Race in the Curragh. McAteer was happy to hold his mount up in rear of the six runners over this seven-furlong trip. They travelled well in fifth a quarter of a mile out and made good headway to lead over a furlong out. From there, it was smooth sailing as they went on and scored by a stress-free length and a-quarter at 7/2. Elinor Dashwood (12/1) stayed on for second without troubling the winner. David Marnane said: “He's a very good horse. He went to York and mightn't have been on the top of his game, but the ground was very firm that day and I don't know whether he wanted it that quick. “I'd say it made a man of him anyway. He's improving and, with the size of him, all he's going to do is get better. “My wife showed me a video of him the other day, from February of this year, and he's a completely different horse. “Unfortunately, he's going to go to the sales, I'd love to keep him. He's in the October horses-in-training sale. He'll make some horse for Australia.” Additional reporting by Gary Carson
