Hydrangea's sis Hermosa delivers at tasty price Hydrangea's sister Hermosa delivered at the tasty price of 11/8 favourite in The Colm Quinn BMW Irish EBF Fillies Maiden at Galway. Newcomer Tarnawa was an eye-catching third for Dermot Weld, but there was the promise of plenty more to come from Ballydoyle's winner Hermosa too, given the manner of victory here. She looked very promising when fourth on debut at the Curragh 32 days back and once in the clear in the straight here the Galileo filly displayed a lovely change of gear. At the line Donnacha O'Brien's mount had a length and a half a length in hand over Engles Rock and the aforementioned Tarnawa. "She's improving away but she's still a bit backward," said the winning rider. "Once I got a crack into her she picked up well. "It was a good performance. She was green the first day and she was still a bit green today. "For an inexperienced two-year-old this is a tough track but once she got in the clear in the straight she was good." (EM)
