Trainer Edward O'Grady registered his second winner in as many days as the J.P. McManus owned Sonowyouno landed the Graun Hill Suite For Parties Beginners Chase at Tramore under Munster National winning jockey Luke Dempsey.
Jockey Dempsey partnered McManus' Spider Web to a last-gasp win in Limerick's feature race on Sunday and today steered Sonowyouno to a four and a quarter lengths win over Cowboy Des Long
O'Grady sent out Slippery Serpent to win at Punchestown yesterday and following today's success stated “it was a nice opportunity and he is a nice big horse. He is obviously a good jumper and he stays well. Obviously he has been a bit disappointing and it's nice to get a bracket for him."
“Hopefully the second horse is overrated at 114 and perhaps he will make into a nice staying chaser now.
“Luke is riding very well and he got him jumping very well. He gave Spider Web a great ride in the Munster National the other day and it's the first winner he has ridden for me, and I thought he did it very well.”
