Byrne grabs first winner on Coincidental Glory It was a red-letter day for jockey Camillus Byrne who partnered his first racecourse winner aboard Coincidental Glory for Ado McGuinness in the opening five-furlong handicap at Dundalk. The 15/2 shot made headway in the final quarter of a mile and rolled home well in the final furlong to score by a length and a quarter from Lethimfly (7/2). One Cool Bear (6/1) was a further length away in third. Byrne said: "Brilliant! He actually did it pretty well in the end, got a nice gap turning in. They went very hard in front and got a wee passage through and he really took me into the gap. "I'm 16, live in Meath, and I'm still at school at the minute. I'm in fifth year and hopefully will go on to be a jockey, but we will see what happens. I'll stay at it. I go into Ado's at weekends and it is great. "It is brilliant passing the winning post and hopefully many more to come. "I have been pony racing for the last four or five years and it is definitely a big help with pace and all that sort of stuff."
