Star apprentice Rory Cleary followed up Tuesday night’s McDonogh Handicap success when landing another nice pot in the €70,000 Guinness Handicap at Galway tonight.

Cleary produced High Priestess (5-1) to challenge over a furlong out in the mile-and-a-half contest and the mare stayed on well to head long-time leader Former Senator inside the final 200 yards for a length-and-a-half success.
