Donegal Jockey Oisin Orr has taken another big-money win in the Middle East.
Orr, riding the Richard Fahey trained Spirit Dancer, took the win in the $2 million Howdem Neom Turf Cup in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia yesterday.
In a close field, Orr took the win by a length.
WOW!

Spirit Dancer is also owned by former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
It’s the second win in a big race for Orr and Spirit Dancer, having also taken home the $1 million Bahrain International Trophy last November as well for Fahey and Ferguson.
