GALLAGHER BACK WITH WINNER Dean Gallagher made a winning return to the saddle after a six-month absence on West End Dancer in the Levy Board Mares` Only Novices` Handicap Hurdle at Folkestone today. Gallagher was having his first ride in Britain since July 2nd having been suspended for testing positive for cocaine. The jockey settled the 5-2 second favourite, trained by Philip McEntee, in second place as Pertemps Cindrella set the pace. Gallagher certainly had his fitness tested as a couple of poor jumps meant he had to scrub his mount along in the back straight. But his perseverance paid off as he took the lead on the home turn, his mount striding clear to beat Pertemps Cindrella by eight lengths. Gallagher said: 'I`m delighted, absolutely thrilled, I couldn`t have wished for better.'
