3yo's to the fore as Royal wins again
The three 3yo's in the fifteen runner George Fitzmaurice Handicap taught their elders a lesson as they finished first, second and third with Royal Blue Star for Jessica Harrington and Shane Foley coming out on top.
The daughter of Dalakhani soon led from the stalls and never saw another rival as she raced away to score by two lengths over Stylish One in second with a further seven lengths back to the 9/2fav Trans City
After making all on her last start at Navan as well, the winner is certainly improving and seems to have found her perfect trip after she failed to see out the 1m 2f journey at Dundalk in early April.
The winner who landed a touch on her last start a Navan when backed from a morning price of 4/1 into 7/4fav at the off, didn't go off un-backed here as she went from 7/1 into 11/2 at the start, on track.
Winning trainer Jessica Harrington was not present for the win.
