Six Gun survives scare to deny Fifty Bob

The Pat Doyle-trained Six Gun Serenade gave ample indication that a bright track career lies in wait by winning the four-year-old geldings’ maiden at yesterday’s well-attended Killeady Harriers point-to-point at Ballyarthur outside Fermoy.

Six Gun Serenade (6/4), who unseated six out on his initial outing at Kilmallock just seven days earlier, arrived from off the pace to pick up the running before the second last of the 15 obstacles.

The winning son of Kalanisi was well in command when losing momentum just before the final fence which resulted in him being far from clever over the obstacle.
