On what's been a memorable night for the O'Brien family at Dundalk, Annmarie and Aidan doubled up in the ownership and training ranks, as Bishan Bedi (7/2 this morning into 5/2) justified favouritism under their daughter Ana, in the Muldoon XL Drumconrath Handicap.
Their son Donnacha, rode the earlier winner, Song Of Love whilst he'd also landed the opener, for James Nash, on Shinyhappyjohn
Here Bishan Bedi got a nice split down the fence, having tracked the leaders, to lead under two furlongs out.
He kept on well inside the final furlong to see off Camakasi and The Dancing Lord by a length and a quarter and a head.
"He did it well. He took me into it lovely and he's a lovely horse. He has no problem with seven or a mile," said Ana O'Brien.
"It worked out well. He jumped and travelled and picked up when he had to." (GC & EM)
