Awe inspires Murtagh for weekend ahead

Fri 30th Apr 2010, 20:30

Awe Inspiring (11/8 into 9/10) took the concluding Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Fillies Maiden in the style of an improving type – Johnny Murtagh's mount sluicing up by three and a half lengths from her main market rival, Be My Storm

The daughter of Montjeu was having her fourth start and the Ballydoyle runner is obviously going the right way.

Murtagh quipped: "We're just warming up for the weekend (the Guineas at Newmarket). Aidan (O'Brien) wants me going over there on a high."
