Impressive Aidan O’Brien-trained Capri completes quick double

The Aidan O’Brien-trained Capri, successful in Galway last Saturday, impressed when justifying 8/11 favouritism in the listed Coolmore Canford Cliffs 2-Y-0 Stakes in Tipperary last night.

Soon in front under Seamus Heffernan, he lengthened well when asked for his effort in the straight and stayed on well to beat Boyfriend Brian by two lengths.

“He’s a nice colt, still a baby, and coming forward with each run,” said O’Brien. “Seamus loves him and was very happy with him again today. He’s a solid, straight-forward colt.”
