Trainer/jockey Turlough O'Connor registered his first training win at Cork today when also steering his Harry The Lemon to win the Coolmore N.H. Sires Leading Light & Ocovango Maiden Hunters Chase

Harry The Lemon, a maiden winner at Kildorrery earlier this season, was prominent throughout and, having moved to the front at the third last fence, stayed on well for a two lengths win over Likeable Rogue

Newmarket, Co Cork based O'Connor was recording his first training success and his second as a jockey, having partnered his initial winner on Drawn N Drank at last season's Fairyhouse Festival.
