There was a second winner on the evening at Dundalk for Oisin Orr when Specific Gravity came out on top in the Weatherbys GSB Rated Race.

Orr took the spoils in the 7.30 for Paul Flynn on the progressive Try Again

In this mile and a half heat he was aboard Sean Gallagher and Ado McGuinness' old-stager, Specific Gravity, and as the joint oldest in the line-up at the age of nine, the 10/1 chance fought off Duchessofflorence and Udogo by three parts of a length and a nose.

"He gave him a great ride. We thought there was going to be plenty of pace so we dropped out and took our time," said McGuinness.

"He was tracking Wayne (Lordan) a lot of the way and the gaps opened up brilliant. I thought he got out a little bit early but it was perfect.

"The horse has been a revelation around here this year. I don't know why but he is.

"We have him entered in the Lincoln. We probably won't go — it depends what way the ground is.

"He's on form and we'll just tip away here. He's probably going to go up a bit now and we might even look at Lingfield.

"Sean is a great patron of mine, a great supporter, and he's delighted."
