Blue is the colour for McCreery

Willie McCreery is optimistic Colour Blue can further showcase her consistent streak when she runs in the Listed Vincent O’Brien Ruby Stakes at Killarney today.

The three-year-old filly was beaten a length into third by Dalkova in a Listed contest at the Galway Festival and was a course and distance winner in May.

McCreery said: “She’s a tough little one who does nothing at home. She doesn’t need to, though, as she’s very clear-winded.
