TRAINER Conor O’Dwyer and wife Audrey managed to grab a few days away in Tenerife last weekend and there are reports of complaints about the roaring coming from their hotel bedroom last Friday night week. Audrey swears they were only watching Dundalk on the iPad and the screaming was for Jon Ess, winner of the 10-furlong handicap under Billy Lee.

“We got a great kick out of it,” reported Audrey. “Conor felt the horse had been working well in a first-time visor and, if he got out of the gates quickly, he had a great chance. Billy was great on him, as the horse had just gone a bit lazy, so he kept him up to his job.”
