Busy spell No Biggie for O'Brien horse

After a win for their sister Ana earlier, on the Eddie Lynam-trained Future Icon Joseph and Donnacha O'Brien got on the score-sheet themselves in the finale at Naas, the Barbeque Evening July 20th Handicap with No Biggie

Joseph elected to bring No Biggie out again quickly, after his third placing at Fairyhouse on Wednesday, and it paid a rich dividend as the Lord Shanakill gelding ran away with the mile and a half contest, by four and a half lengths under Donnacha.

The winning rider said: "He did it really well and the step up to a mile and half suited him. He relaxes very well in his races and he could go further."

No Biggie was bred by the O'Brien family's Whisperview Trading Ltd, and he went off the well-backed 5/2 favourite.
