Shark gets a dose of the cure for 'seconditis' Nine-year-old Pahlavi, ridden by Harry Sexton, registered just his second victory when taking Downpatrick's CM Precision Components Handicap Hurdle over two miles and a furlong.  Fourth at Listowel on his most recent start, the 7/1 chance moved up to dispute the lead with odds-on favourite Invincible Oscar on the approach to the last and took over on the run-in to eat that rival by a length and a quarter. "Harry is riding very, very well," said winning trainer Shark Hanlon "We've had three seconds and a third in our last five runners before today. We've had a lot of placed horses in the last 10 or 12 weeks. The seconditis is unreal! The only answer is winners. "It does get in your head, but they are not doing anything wrong. You don't change anything and every day you go racing, you hope you will have a winner and they keep getting placed. "That horse won here a year ago. That (Shark Hanlon Racing Club) was my big syndicate and a lot of the people are after leaving. In fairness, there's about 20 people stayed in and they have been rewarded. He loves it here. "He's in at Fairyhouse again tomorrow and he might end up there. We'll see how he is in the morning because his ground is going to be gone very shortly. He got his ground today. "Everything is running well for the quality of horse I have, I haven't got stars. The 0-100s are maybe more competitive than a 0-110." Additional reporting by Michael Graham
