May Remain gained his third win of the Winter Series at Dundalk today as the Pat Murphy trained gelding landed the opening Opening Winter Series Awards At Dundalk Handicap under jockey Gavin Ryan.

The son of Mayson was today registering his fifth career success and his third since November when beating Nigg Bay by half a length.

Jockey Ryan later said “that's his third win here this winter and he's a horse that seems to be on the improve.

“It could be his last run here as he goes to the sales next week.

“He likes to be up there and getting on with things. Everything panned out well, he quickened up when we got into the straight and hit the line well.”
