Joey Sheridan and Denis Hogan continued their good form when Nezeeh won a battle with Carrigans Grove in the concluding handicap over six furlongs in the Curragh.

That pair of horses had the race at their mercy inside the final furlong as they separated themselves from their rivals.

Nezeeh (7/2) always just held the upper hand in the closing stages and flashed past the post a neck up on Carrigans Grove (5/2f). Send Harry finished a couple of lengths back in third at 12/1.

Hogan said: “He’s a likeable horse, genuine and improving away.

“During the winter I was using him to give the young lads a couple of rides and then Joey ended up on him in Cork and he won so I said we’d better leave him on him.

“He’s in the Goffs Online Sale on Monday and I’d love somebody to buy him and leave him with me.

"Joey is riding super, and I think that is four winners in four days for us. All the horses are running well even in defeat. I couldn’t be happier with the way things are going.”
