Enjoying their best ever season, Johnny Murtagh and stable-jockey Ben Coen landed the featured DNG Handicap in the Curragh courtesy of Retracement.

Backed into 7-4 favourite, the Australia gelding, having his sixth run for Murtagh, was produced late by Coen and knuckled down well enough to get the better of In My Teens by a half-length with Fiver Friday in third.
