HOME SWEET HOME FOR CORK-BORN O`NEILL AT CURRAGH Cork-born Dane O'Neill continued his rich association with the Curragh on Saturday when he partnered Rag Top to justify favouritism in the featured seven furlong C.L. Weld Park Stakes.Winner of a valuable listed contest in Naas whe partnered by O`Neill back in June, the Richard Hannon-trained 9/4 market leader travelled sweetly throughout before she forged to the front at the furlong pole and kept on well to defeat Feabhas and Finity. This was Lambourn-based O'Neill`s fifth success at the Curragh.Richard Hannon, representing his father and namesake, has Classic glory next year very much on the agenda, 'She's a guineas filly and I'd like to see her come back for the Irish 1,000 Guineas next season,' he said.Referring to her poor effort when fifth in a Group 3 Deauville contest in August, Hannon Jnr revealed, 'Like a lot of our horses she went off the boil a bit but Dane, who I think is still so underrated in Britain, gave her a lovely ride out there. She settled well and she'll get a mile next year.'
