Martin Harley landed his second winner of the week yesterday evening at Kempton Park.

The Trentagh jockey took victory on First Dance in the Cappagh Group/Breeders Backing Racing EBF Maiden Fillies’ Stakes.

Harley, riding the three-year-old First Dance, the even money favourite, for James Tate, won with ease.

First Dance coasted to a three-length win.

Harley switched tact early in the race and by the final furlong had taken total command of the race.

He easily won from Natheer, the 7/2 shot ridden by Jim Crowley.

On Tuesday, Harley rode the 12/1 Doctor Sardonicus to victory at Chelmsford.

Also yesterday, the Donegal man was third on 5/1 Royal Parks in an earlier race at Kempton.
