After recording a double at Dundalk this afternoon Joseph O'Brien arrived via chopper to Killarney at around 6:30 this evening for his two rides on the card.

O'Brien won aboard George Vancouver and Mars for his father Aidan at Dundalk while he also had five other rides on the card finishing second on Xsquared and third on Strait Of Zanzibar

This evening at Killarney he could very well notch up another double as he rides the short priced favourite Happy Anniversary in the 7:20 and Beach Of Falesa another likely to go off favourite in the 8:20.
