Local jockey Ben Lecky continued in his rich vein of form at Culmullen in Meath on Sunday when he gave “Shake Him Up Harry” a peach to score in the 12 Furlong Open.
The horse finished with a flourish to beat “Oreo” in second and “Green Whistle” in third.
Other local winners were “Our Bridget” for Nina Doherty in the 10 Furlong Open, making it 3 from 3 this season, and later on in the 1 mile 6 Furlong “Tommy K” bounced right back to his best when he ran out a comfortable winner giving Meath star Nina Doherty a double on the day.
There are a couple of upcoming local meetings next week.
On Wednesday, July 1st, there’s a 6pm start at the Big Isle and 3 days later on Saturday, July 4th, the Bundoran Races get underway from 3pm.
