Boru has satisfactory work-out

EPSOM Derby favourite Brian Boru produced what could only be described as a satisfactory work-out after racing at Leopardstown yesterday.

He went ten furlongs with stable companions Dickens and The Great Gatsby, from stalls, and eventually finished about a length in front of The Great Gatsby.

Dickens (Colm O’Donoghue), following a tardy start, soon led, but was never very far in front of The Great Gatsby (Seamus Heffernan), with Brian Boru (Michael Kinane) a couple of lengths away in third.
