Paidi O'Brien has won the John Drumm Cup Memorial in Currow, County Kerry this afternoon.
The Banteer man, riding for the Osbourne Meats-Edge Sports Shop team, outsprinted his neighbour and training partner Eddie Dunbar after the duo had broken away from the day's other breakaway man, Mick Fitzgerald (VeloRevolution).
For Dunbar, it is two runners-up places in as many days after he went to the line with Damien Shaw in the Shay Elliott Memorial yesterday in Co Wicklow before being beaten there too.

Fitzgerald hung on for 3rd place, with Denis Dunworth (Tralee BC-Manor West) 4th over the line after leading in a mini-chase group that contained around three others.
