Well backed Scream Blue Murder justifies support

Scream Blue Murder, well supported throughout the day, justified 5-4 favouritism for the Father’s Day Racing June 15th Race at Cork last night.

Wayne Lordan, who went on to a treble, wasn’t hanging about on favourite in the five-furlong contest and had her smartly away from the stalls in order to grab the important rails berth, and she was soon bowling along in front in her preferred easy underfoot conditions.

She burned off the opposition one by one and only outsider Master Speaker posed a threat, but he was beaten off from the furlong pole and Scream Blue Murder passed the post with a comfortable length and three-quarters in hand.
