Eziyra a real eye-catcher but Galway will be stiffer task

At Tipperary last Saturday, Dermot Weld’s newcomer, Eziyra, caught the eye of just about everyone watching.

The daughter of Teofilo was very easy to back, with the bulk of the money on this two-year-old maiden landing on the form horses, eventual winner, John Oxx’s Sea Of Grace and Aidan O’Brien’s third placed, Leo Minor.

In between them, however, was Eziyra, beaten a length into second and noted doing all of her best work at the end of the seven and a half furlongs.
