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.
