Reposer pays for his nuts
Reposer scored in style at Dundalk

Bumper winners like Fayette County, Group class sprinters such as My Girl Anna and low grade handicappers in the form of Reposer – it all seems to come alike to Ballinasloe, County Galway trainer, Muredach Kelly. He obviously has his horses on good terms with themselves right now as Reposer landed a punt under Colm O'Donoghue in the Crowne Plaza Hotel Race & Stay Handicap at Dundalk.
Reportedly taken from as big as 12/1 in the betting offices earlier in the day (7/2 out to 9/2 on track), Reposer, having his third start for Kelly, was always looking good here under O'Donoghue.
He led under two furlongs out and the former dual John Best winner cross-channel soon only really had the pursuing Tsar Paul to worry about. The winner stayed on well from over a furlong out to score by two and three parts of a length.
Kelly, also on leading-up duties, said: "We changed his nuts (feed) and that's turned him around. That was badly needed (the win).
"My Girl Anna is going well and will be out soon. Watch this space!" (AM & EM)
