Joseph O’Brien has made an excellent start to his training career and having receiving his trainers’ license last weekend, followed up Monday’s four-timer with his fifth career winner at Leopardstown today when No Biggie landed the concluding Copper Face Jacks Handicap, under his sister Ana O’Brien.

No Biggie was one of three beaten O’Brien-trained runners(from his seven) on Monday but improved on his fourth place finish then when making most to eventually beat Tasty Ginger

After today’s win, trainer O’Brien, based in Owning, Co Kilkenny, stated “he ran well the last day and I think he’ll stay further. If the handicapper is not too hard on him he can win another - when the track is that far in it suits front-runners.”
