Collins Street leads home a Joseph O'Brien one-two at Naas

The best dish was served last when Collins Street got up to beat Max Mayhem to lead home a one-two for Joseph O’Brien in the final race on the card.

The race, Donate To The Coast To Curragh Charity Cycle In Honour Of Pat Smullen, carried the title of the charity event on Saturday September 25 organised by regular Racing Post contributor Gavin Lynch.

And it looks to have been won by an above-average sort in Collins Street, but he needed every yard to claw back his stablemate.

Assistant trainer Brendan Powell said: “I know Joseph always thought he was a really nice horse. You could say that the other horse has thrown it away, but Declan [McDonogh] said that, if anything, Max Mayhem hampered him a little.

"Once Collins Street picked Max up he galloped all the way to the line. Another furlong or two would be right up his street.”

Flying visit for 'Fish' pays off as Lynch bags first winner

Mark Enright had no time to hang about and celebrate Jennifer Lynch's first winner as a trainer after the rider was quickly out the gap to cheer on Limerick against Cork in the All-Ireland hurling final at Croke Park after winning the sprint handicap on Clara's Approach.

Affectionately known as 'Fish,' the Limerick man is understood to play a big role in Lynch's burgeoning operation on the Curragh, and left for the All-Ireland final with a spring in his step.

Lynch, who took out her licence in March, said: “I have a few in training at Clifton Lodge on the Curragh. I have eight in at the moment and have room for 15.

“She was pre-trained by her breeder James O’Haire and came to me about five months ago. She was unlucky on her previous run at Sligo where she was stopped in running and was only beaten two lengths.”

The trainer added: “Credit to Mark. He was keen on her coming into the race. He gave her a great ride.”

Jake crowns memorable weekend for the Coens with first win

What a weekend it was to be a Coen. Just 24 hours after Ben drove Sonnyboyliston to Ebor glory at York, his younger brother Jake made his first ride a winning one when scoring on Dare To Flare, trained by his uncle Andy Slattery, in the apprentices’ handicap.

Slattery said: “It’s been a great weekend. This is a grand horse and he’s had wind surgery since he ran last. He was working fierce well.”

He added: “Jake is Ben’s brother. He only turned 16 last week and got his licence out. He rode a few pony race winners and he’s been riding out for us since he’s 10. He might end up over jumps but he’ll get as much out of the Flat as he can.”
