'Onwards and upwards' for team Hogan as he strikes with 84-1 double

Denis Hogan had two winners at Dundalk on Wednesday.

Robert Whearty rode his first winner for Denis Hogan at Dundalk on Wednesday. The County Tipperary trainer made an 84-1 double. Jaafel won twice in the mile handicap. Joey Sheridan rode him to victory. He had been without a win for 17 runs before his previous success in November.

Joseph O'Brien has been in fine form recently. Mikey Sheehy took the ride on Elusive Tune to win the 7f auction race. O’Brien's strike-rate is 21 per cent over the last fortnight over jumps and on the Flat.

Champion Flat jockey Colin Keane landed another Dundalk winner as Shangrilama justified favouritism to record back-to-back wins in the mile Nursery. Championship rival Billy Lee landed a double as Cold Steel followed on from last week’s success at the track to win the 1m2½f handicap.

Livingston Range has won for the first time since switching trainers. The Siobhan Rutledge-ridden Inflection Point won the second division for John McConnell.
