Once Pat Smullen began to wind it up from the front early in the straight on great Dundalk campaigner, Togoville , the strong suspicion was that there'd be no way past for his rivals in race three.

In this Dundalk - Light Up Your Night Handicap, Smullen was aboard the versatile now six time course winner for the second occasion in a race.

Togoville had to yield for market supremacy to Jamesie , and that one came there with his bid from over a furlong out.

However Togoville kept on well to assert in the final hundred yards for a two length win.

"It's up to the boss (owner Patrick McCann) now whether we go on January 2nd (five furlong conditions race at Chelmsford City) for the all-weather championship race over five furlongs," said winning trainer Georgios Pakidis.

"We'll see how he is in the next couple of days before making a decision."
