Reports in which Opening Verse (IRE) was mentioned
Murphy's Verse comes forward lovely from Opening effort a week back
Slowly into stride when making a reasonable beginning to his career at Naas a week back with a sixth placing over six furlongs, Opening Verse came forward beautifully to win division two of the Buy Annual Membership Today Maiden at Cork. Sat 20th Apr
After race at Cork Sat, 20th Apr, 2019 (1st) 
We have always been very fond of this fellow. We were disappointed with him the first day and thought he'd be in the first three but he missed the break. He is very fast and I'd say he'll get better with better ground and he could be anything,. We'll probably hold on to him for a while as we bred him and want to do best for the mare. His half-brother was third in the Qatar Derby and he is from a fast family. We will see what the handicapper does but might go for a black-type race straightaway with him.
