MARTIN HARLEY’S good form continued this afternoon at Lingfield, where the Trentagh jockey rode two winners.

Harley had success on 7/1 Miss Dusky Diva and the 13/8 Petite Jack.

In the Betway Stayers Handicap, Harley scored his first win of the day on the David Drinkwater-trained Miss Dusky Diva.

Set off at 7/1, Miss Dusky Diva was held up early on before coming into contention 5 furlongs from home. After making good headway under Harley, the five-year-old stayed on and pulled clear to win from the 25/1 shot Grand Facile.

Harley, who was second in the next race on the Ed Dunlop-prepared Dutch Uncle, was back in the winner’s enclosure after a win in the Betway Best Odds Guaranteed Plus Handicap.

Aboard Petite Jack, the 13/8 favourite trained by Neil King, Harley quickened to lead well and moved well in command over the last furlong to take the win from Dolphin Village.
