Joseph O’Brien doubled up in the finale at Leopardstown as Lampetia (15/2) prevailed in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap with Mikey Sheehy up.
His brother Danny didn’t get a clear run and eventually finished fifth on the Johnny Murtagh-trained favourite, She’s Our Queen.
Adding to the earlier O’Brien gains in the Listed Vinnie Roe Stakes with Pista and Shane Crosse, Lampetia prevailed by a neck from Noble Music The winner’s stable companion Zoom Zoom Babe came home in fourth.
“It was a tough performance. I thought for a minute she was in trouble on the home-bend but Mikey said she's as tough as nails and 100 percent genuine,” said stable representative Brendan Powell.
“He said when she's got there she's going away again. She'll stay further and hopefully she'll win again.”
C.D. Hayes, rider of Too Soon To Panic trained by J.A.Stack, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount got marginally tight for room at the line.
D.E. Sheehy, rider of She's Our Queen trained by J.P. Murtagh, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount got tight for room in the straight.
S.M. Crosse, rider of Zoom Zoom Babe (GB) trained by Joseph Patrick O'Brien, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount got no luck in running.
