An Laochmor doubles up in Dundalk curtain-raiser Having recorded a first career win when successful at Lingfield last time, the Danny Murphy-trained An Laochmor made it back-to-back victories in landing the opening Sunday 12th July Ladies Day At Dundalk Stadium Handicap. Quickly into stride under Colin Keane, the Anthony Challoner-owned 6/4 favourite led briefly before settling second behind pace-setter Bye Bye Now. Coming through to take over with more than a furlong left to race, the five-year-old kept on well to hold the late challenge of Jordan Breeze by half-a-length. Danny Murphy said: "That's two wins now for us, that's great. "We were in Lingfield and had a bit of fun with him, and he won well. Funny, Oisin McSweeney said to me that he's better from behind. Colin said to me that Siobhan (Rutledge, Bye Bye Now) will probably go to the front and that he would track her. "He will travel again and he might even run on the grass. He's a well-handicapped horse really. "A fine, big horse by BungleInthejungle and I've had a bit of luck with them." Additional reporting by Michael Graham.
