Heffernan and O'Brien in double form

Wed 7th Jul 2010, 18:43

Seamie Heffernan and Aidan O’Brien recorded a quick double when Rudolf Valentino came home in front of the Irish Stallion Farms EBF (C&G) Maiden.

Heffernan who made virtually all aboard the 8/13 favourite, kicked clear of his rivals over a furlong out.

The duo kept on well on the run-in to score by a cosy six lengths.

Winning jockey Heffernan stated briefly: "He's improving all of the time and has a great attitude."
