Dundalk flop Marchese Marconi makes no mistake

Some 14,000, mostly students, were on site at Limerick last night and they certainly created what is probably best described as an unique atmosphere!

Aidan O’Brien’s Marchese Marconi, beaten at 1-5 at Dundalk last week, went off a 2-7 shot in the Festival Of Speed Maiden and made no mistake this time round.

Ridden by Joseph O’Brien, Marchese Marconi edged ahead over three furlongs down and only had to be pushed out to easily beat Prima Vista.
