Trainer Ado McGuinness and stable jockey Adam Caffrey combined for Dundalk doubles today, completing the feat with I’m Spartacus (11/4f) in the Now Racing Every Wednesday At Dundalk Handicap.

Successful in the earlier race with Nikki Swango the pair added to the haul with I’m Spartacus who raced prominently before leading inside the final furlong for a three-parts of a length win over Sovereign Banter

McGuinness said "He (Caffrey) was good and positive on him, there was plenty of pace on, he rolled home and picked them off. Fair play to him, Adam knows him well and he has won on him a few times.

"We'll hopefully find something else for him before Christmas, but today was the plan first of all. We'll keep rolling and he will get another day somewhere."

"It is great for Paddy (McKeever, part owner) who is a former Armagh footballer. He was giving out to me a few times, but we got it right today!”
