Allography beats Old Time Waltz© Photo Healy Racing
Allography stuck to his task well to put himself in the shop window ahead of a trip to the sales when taking the Scotch Hall Shopping Centre Ladies Day Handicap at Bellewstown.
Conor McGovern settled the 7/2 favourite in behind the leaders in the extended seven-furlong contest before switching out to launch his challenge over a furlong from home.
The Godolphin colt kept on gamely inside the final furlong to get to the front in the closing stages for a three-parts-of-a-length victory over Old Time Waltz
Michael Halford 's charge was winning his third race of the year having taken a maiden at Dundalk in March and won a Naas handicap in May.
“He's a very consistent horse and I thought Conor gave him a lovely ride,” said Halford.
“He got him into a lovely rhythm which is important around here to get them balanced. He took a valuable 5lb off him.
“He's in the July Sales next week. He's been a good servant to us and I'm sure he'll be as good to the next person.
“He's a lovely solid horse, dead genuine and tries hard. That is a good trip and ground for him. He's straight-forward to train. He's been very good to us.
“I think Conor is a very good rider and great value for his 5lb. It's just hard to give everyone opportunities and it's nice to get him another winner.”
