There's no stopping Dunlop and Durcan at Goodwood

The Arundel trainer teamed up with his regular rider Ted Durcan for two victories out of seven at the course’s second Saturday card of 2011. And Durcan completed a treble. Dunlop’s first success came when Durcan guided 3/1 second favourite Harlestone Times to victory in the second, and the pair followed up with 2/1 favourite Anton Dolin in the sixth. Durcan ended a memorable personal day by riding Walter Swinburn-trained Perfect Pastime (9/2) first past the post in the last. There was no delight for Dunlop in the feature race, the Festival Stakes, which was won by the Brian Meehan-trained 6/1 shot City Leader, ridden by Martin Dwyer. Goodwood’s next meeting is the bank-holiday Monday family raceday, sponsored by Johnston Press, owners of the Chichester Observer series. We’ll have a preview and tips here on Saturday, May 28.
