Exquisite Acclaim records seventh Dundalk success After Inishmot Prince recorded his tenth course victory earlier on the Dundalk card, Exquisite Acclaim (6/1) was another Polytrack specialist to hit the target as he took the featured Dundalk Winter Series Leading Trainer & Jockey Championship Handicap. Trained by last year's leading trainer at the Co Louth venue, Ado McGuinness, the seven-year-old tracked the leaders and hit the front entering the final quarter-mile. From there, Adam Caffrey's mount kept on well to post a three-parts of a length success over the slow-starting, and fast-finishing, Brewing. Owned by Thomas O'Connor and the trainer's wife Hazel McGuinness, Exquisite Acclaim was winning for the seventh time at Dundalk. Winning trainer Ado McGuinness commented "A horse like him, he's very consistent - he always gets his couple of races. It is great to get him back in front. "He's a great fun horse and he pays his way. "There's a race in Newcastle next week, it is 35 grand, and we might slip into it. It is for 0-85s, I think. We'll have to see with the ratings, but we might go there." Additional reporting by Michael Graham
