Sam Ewing has had a few months to remember, and the talented claimer, who rode his first winner in August at Cork racecourse, brought his career tally to 19 with a double on today’s card in Dundalk.

Ewing, who is based with Ger Lyons, got the ball rolling in the opening race, which he won aboard Irish Poseidon. Formerly trained in Germany, the winner went close on his Irish debut last midweek and Matthew Smith’s recent acquisition made no mistake at the second time of asking, battling well for Ewing to win the Irishinjuredjockeys.com Handicap by half a length.
