THE Wesley Joyce-ridden Dinamine landed his second win of the season at Bellewstown on Tuesday last.
Limerick jockey Joyce was in the saddle when the seven-year-old got off the mark at Gowran Park in April of this year and the partnership struck again for trainer Michael Mulvany in division two of the eight-furlong handicap.
Owned and bred by Sean Finnegan, the well-supported 11/2 favourite led over a furlong out to beat the Tom McGuinness-trained 33/1 chance Hastily by a length and a quarter.

Moyross jockey Joyce rode his second winner of the week when partnering by far the longest priced winner of the afternoon at Navan on Thursday.
He won the concluding 14-furlong handicap on the Tom Hogan-trained 33/1 shot Share The Treasure. With Joyce riding for owner Robert Gill, the four-year-old battled well inside the final furlong to pip Gavin Cromwell’s 5/2 favourite Arcland by a shorthead.
The Ballingarry combination of Charles and Philip Byrnes landed the two-mile one-furlong handicap hurdle with the 4/1 chance Eastmore at Down Royal on Friday evening.
Owned by Justin Carthy and Patrick O’Brien, the five-year-old led after the second-last hurdle and battled well after being headed on the run-in to score by a neck from Noel Meade’s 8/1 shot Desert Haven. The trainer completed a double as the Alan O’Sullivan-ridden Run For Mahler scored a battling success of his own in the concluding bumper.
Owned by the Top Of The Hill Syndicate, the 2/1 chance gained an advantage inside the final furlong and held the Emmet Mullins-trained 11/8 favourite Good Girl Kathleen, ridden by Alan O’Sullivan’s cousin Maxine, by a neck.
