Moon hits heights in opener

Sun 10th Jul 2011, 14:20

Gonebeyondthemoon got off the mark in good fashion when claiming the opening maiden at Fairyhouse this afternoon.

Wayne Lordan produced hismount to take it up, from front-running favourite Eagle Canyon (2/1 into 13/8), just inside the furlong pole.

The David Wachman-trained filly, who had proved easy to back (2/1 to 5/2), kept on strongly for a two-length success. Diamond Daze ran on to take second, ahead of the well-backed Dodging Bullets (6/1 in morning into 11/4 on course).

"It's nice quick good safe ground and they went a good gallop," reported Lordan afterwards.

"She travelled easily, handled the ground well and went to the line well."
