Joseph's easy winner lives up to her name

The market foretold the outcome of the winners-of-one contest which was won very easily by Didn'thavemuchtodo under Declan McDonogh.
Last month's long-priced Naas maiden winner shortened from 5/2 this morning into 13/8 and took over from outsider of three Relevant Range over a furlong out. It was all over at that point and Joseph O'Brien's filly went away to beat the never dangerous McTigue (Evens fav from 2/5 this morning) by five lengths.
Assistant trainer Brendan Powell said: "Declan said the leader went a right good gallop, which played into her hands and said she'll stay further.
"He said he was only squeezing her along turning into the straight, she came back on the bridle and when she hit the front she had a look around at the people over the rail and even at the line she ducked away from the photographer.
"She is still only a baby but is going the right direction and I think there is definitely black-type in her and she can only progress. She has a lovely temperament as well."
