WARRENPOINT’s Leanne Breen, who received her trainer’s licence in July, sent out Latchet to record her first success at Dundalk last Friday evening and was just denied a second victory at the same track on Wednesday when the Intense Focus mare was beaten into second by a nose.

The 24-year-old, whose family has no connection with racing, used to ride out pointers locally, did an Equine Management Degree at the Enniskillen campus of the College of Agriculture, Food & Rural Enterprise and spent her three months’ placement with Scottish trainer Keith Dalgleish.
