ABBEYFEALE apprentice Paddy Harnett partnered Getaway Queen to land her fifth success at Dundalk and her eighth in all when winning the opening two-mile handicap on the all-weather on Wednesday last.

Trained by Ken Budds, the 15/2 chance scored by half a length from the Noel Meade-trained Roman Song in the colours of Mark Landers.

Trainer Laura Hourigan and Castlemahon jockey Mark Enright combined to win the second of the afternoon’s eight-furlong handicaps with Notforalongtime, which was successful for the pair at the track last month.

A 5/1 chance in the trainer’s own silks, the five-year-old held on to win by a head from the David Marnane-trained Tynamite.
