Source Code (nearest) comes to claim Unique Journey © Photo Healy Racing
Joseph O'Brien made it a treble in the two-year-old races at Galway when Source Code (8/1, from 14s before the off) came from off the pace to take the www.swordsecurity.com Nursery.
Well held in three maiden outings, Al Shira'aa Racing's half-brother to Ambiente Friendly was settled well off the pace. Making ground around the outer entering the straight, he swept past Unique Journey in the final furlong to score by a length-and-a-half.
Doubling up after winning the previous contest on Tribal Nation Dylan Browne McMonagle remarked: "The speed was on and there were plenty going forward from the outside so I was able to get him in and get him comfortable behind Billy (Lee, on Unique Journey) who took me as far as I needed.
"I had to come out and around them but he kept on well for pressure and was well on top at the line.
"He is very well bred but took time to come to hand and had the blinkers on for the first time today, which have improved him a lot. Hopefully he can improve again."
