The Letterkenny man led favorites Gambe Veloci and Etna Rosso to victories.

In the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Maiden, Browne-McMonagle won on Etna Rosso, who left the traps as the 11/8 favorite.

Two furlongs from home, Browne-McMonagle hit the front and won with ease.

Orr is now Richard Fahey’s stable jockey and he guided the 8/11 favorite Old Smoke to a win in the Join The Vickers.Bet Free Bet Club Novice Stakes at Thirsk.

Orr nudged in to win by a head having pressed Abu Royal over the final furlong of the one-mile race.

Luke McAteer had a pair of winners during the week.

On Wednesday, McAteer took the 5/2 favorite Brave Troop to victory at Gowran Park for trainer Barry Fitzgerald.

It was a routine outing for McAteer, who had six lengths of a margin to James Henry, a 28/1 shot with Mark Enright in the saddle.

McAteer followed up by winning on Jim Bolger’s 5/4 favorite New Variant at Tipperary on Thursday. There, McAteer had over a length to spare on King Leodegrance, Aidan O’Brien’s 11/4 chance.
