Oisin Orr rides Balmont Mast to victory at Dundalk

Horse Racing
Ballyare teenager Oisin Orr landed the biggest race of his fledgling career when steering Balmont Mast to victory at Dundalk this afternoon.
Sent off at 13-2 for the competitive Bar One Racing Mourne Handicap, Orr always had Balmont Mast in a handy position but showed maturity beyond his years to delay his challenge until the final strides, at which stage the Edward Lynam-trained sprinter edged to the front to deny Have A Nice Day by a neck.
Togoville was back in third. The winner is owned by Derek Iceton and was enjoying his seventh career victory.
