Bogini continues to do O'Callaghan proud Michael O'Callaghan has enjoyed a great start in the training ranks courtesy of Bogini's previous successes cross-channel but the Holy Roman Emperor filly 'came home' to put her handler's name up in lights in Ireland for the first time. With Fergal Lynch up in the opening jogforjockeys.ie Fillies Race at Leopardstown, the blinkered three-year-old (popular in the betting this morning before proving easier on track) got the better of Flic Flac from a furlong out before going on to register a length and a quarter victory. Kildare-based O'Callaghan's other runner in the six furlong contest, Khaos ran on to take the third spot under Sam James. O'Callaghan said: "She probably kept a little bit to herself there but she's improving all the time. "The plan at the start of the year was to aim for the Rockingham and hopefully we'll get there safe and sound. "The handicapper will probably hammer her for that so we'll take our chance tomorrow (at Bellewstown) with a 6Ib penalty. "She likes the routine at home and she's fairly straight-forward. "It was the dead side of good there and I was afraid it would be too quick for her. She won on fairly soft ground in England but she obviously goes on that too. "The other filly (Khaos) ran a blinder and blinkers renewed her enthusiasm." (GC & EM)
