Theatre steals show on debut

Thu 6th Aug 2009, 20:43

Empire Theatre justified favouritism on his debut in the Tuesday 25th August At Sligo (Ladies) Flat Race by three lengths in the hands of Nina Carberry for Noel Meade.

Carberry said: "They went a bit slow for me but once I got after him he stayed on well. He is like the other two horses (half-brothers Failte Go Deo and Failte Arais) in that he is a stayer."
