Published at Jul 29, 2010, 17:53

Apprentice jockey Joseph O'Brien completed a Galway double today, winning the Arthur's Legacy Handicap with Eoin Doyle's 25/1 chance Dusty Trail .

O'Brien was earlier on the mark when Luttrell Lady (see report) was awarded an earlier race in the Stewards' Room.

After Dusty Trail's win, Doyle mentioned “I was a bit surprised with the win to be honest! He's a tough little horse though and we'll mix it with him now and he may run next in a hurdle race at Tramore soon.”
