Jockey Rory Mulligan had his claim reduced to 7lb following a 30th career success today, landing Dundalk’s Put The Fun In Fundraising At Dundalk Handicap on the Diego Dias-owned-and-trained Masked Angel (100/30f).

Held up in mid-field, the maiden four-year-old daughter of Harry Angel improved to lead inside the final furlong and scored by 2.25 lengths from Hasiyna .

Trainer Dias led up the winner and afterwards jockey Mulligan reported "that's my 7lb claim gone now, so hopefully it keeps going well and I have a good season.

"The race worked out perfectly, I let her pop out of the stalls and I got following one of the fancied ones. She took me to the furlong pole and when I went for her in the last furlong, she finished it out well.

"The last day she ran well, but I just got a bit unlucky as I didn't get a great run, and she was coming back into a 0-60 today. I kind of fancied her today.”
