Smullen at his tactical best on Designated Decoy

DERMOT WELD and Pat Smullen followed-up last Friday’s treble on the track with an ‘all-the-way’ double, achieved by Dreams Forever and Designated Decoy, at Dundalk last night.

Smullen made every yard of the running on 73-rated Dreams Forever in the Bar One Racing Median Auction Maiden to beat Curling Bird by a length and three-quarters and described the race as “a good opportunity” for the son of Bachelor Duke.

The champion-jockey was seen at his tactical best on Designated Decoy in the finale, the Morgan Fuels/Morgans Dairies Race over a distance just short of a mile and three furlongs.
