Shirley Blake can continue Lyons’ run

GER Lyons can continue his terrific record at Dundalk by saddling once-raced Shirley Blake to land the Irish Stallion Farms’ EBF Fillies Maiden at the track tonight.

Lyons has enjoyed a splendid campaign with 38 winners on the board and prizemoney inching towards €800,000.

There is every reason to believe Shirley Blake is capable of adding to that considerable total.
