Review gowran park 4th Jul

Tue 4th Jul 2017, 21:20

Ger Lyons and Colin Keane enjoyed a double on the card at Gowran Park on Tuesday evening.< Elegant Pose (4-6 favourite) landed the feature Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Race for the in-form trainer/jockey combination on just her second career start.

A daughter of Elusive Pimpernel, she won what looked a good Curragh maiden readily on debut in May and proved that was no fluke when comfortably accounting for fellow last-time-out winner Gustavus Vassa by one-and-three-quarter lengths.

When action got under way at 6.00, Masucci got the night off to the best possible start for the yard in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Maiden.

Lyons' 5-4 favourite broke well under Keane and having tracked the Joseph O'Brien-trained Spirit Power in the early part, the son of Zoffany soon took it up inside the final three furlongs and stayed well for a two-and-a-quarter-length success at the expense of Iron Blue

Favourite backers were rewarded again in the BBQ Evening August 16th At Gowran Park Handicap courtesy of Fascinating Lady (5-1).

Madeleine Tylicki's three-year-old had to be brave to hold the late challenge of Nothing To Lose but was game under Billy Lee.

Johnny Levins continued his good run of form in the Thomastown Handicap courtesy of Hasselnott (8-1).

Breaking his maiden at the 16th time of asking, the four-year-old was making his debut for the County Kildare-based handler and swooped late under a well-timed Donagh O'Connor ride to beat Mountain Fox by a length and a half.

Jim Bolger and Kevin Manning did not leave empty handed as Level Of Intensity (7-1) showed a taking turn of foot to win the www.gowranpark.ie Handicap from Less Of That and Manning was at the double when the Pat Fahy-trained Pearl Of The West (5-2) was too good for Frima in the Racing Again July 22nd Fillies Maiden finale.
