Newcomer Alamshar cruises to easy success

JOHN OXX introduced an imposing newcomer in Alamshar, owned by the Aga Khan, to land the Harvest Festival EBF Maiden at Listowel yesterday.

The market leaders Russia and Mobane Flyer took each other on from the start, with Johnny Murtagh content to sit in behind.

Once Murtagh asked for an effort in the straight, however, there was only going to be one outcome.
