Rotten Row completed quick back to back successes when claiming the Tom Lynam Memorial Handicap Hurdle at Kilbeggan.

The Tony Mullins-trained gelding struck at 25/1 at Tramore last Thursday and went to post a 7/1 shot today to follow up.

Danny Mullins, who had also landed the opener on Quel Reve produced his mount to challenge going to the final flight in the two-mile-three contest.

The Leading Light gelding got to the front on the run-in and held the late run of Rare Conor by three-parts-of-a-length.

“He likes good ground and that's why we pulled him out again so quick,” said Mullins senior.

“We loved to think we'd go to Listowel but if it's soft ground he doesn't handle it.

“We'll pick somewhere again in about two weeks time and then he'll go chasing.

“He's a lovely well made horse and the O'Byrnes are into national hunt racing all their lives. Roddy, that owns him, would love to have a chaser and so would I.

“I told Danny going out that Roddy is one of the old type owners and that he'd let you ride him your way, don't be panicking about having to be up there or anything.

“I said you ride him the way you see fit and Roddy will agree with that, that's what he did.

“Things went wrong in Limerick and that's why he was 25/1 in Tramore. He hit into himself coming down the hill in Limerick and it ruined his stride. Danny thought he had gone lame and went to pull him up.

“I don't mind he was 25/1 then but I just cannot believe he was 7/1 today. On my reading of the book all he had to do was what he did last week.”
