Lyons - 'wheels are back on' with F'house treble Ger Lyons has quickly put a disappointing Irish Guineas weekend behind him as the Group 1 winning trainer combined with stable and Champion Jockey Colin Keane to record a treble at Fairyhouse today, with Elegant Drama in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden. The pair had earlier won the Claimer with Hyperlapse and a maiden with Heavenly Rainbow and Elegant Drama completing the treble with a half length win over Excelling Spirit. Lyons' Would Be King and Who's Steph both failed to figure in last weekend's Irish 2,000 and 1,000 Guineas and following Elegant Drama's win, the trainer said “the horses are running well but we had a weekend to forget so it's nice to get the wheels back on the wagon and move on. He added “that means something because we thought she was much better than she's showing and she's a lovely model of a filly. “These are new clients (Clipper Logistics) in the yard and I was holding fancy entries with her which was making me look rather stupid. “What we've seen at home is a stakes filly. I genuinely think she's a stakes filly but I just have to get everything right for her, maybe that'll be the turning of the corner. “She has plenty of speed there with blinkers. Tonight is out of the way and I would have been disgusted with myself going through a season and not winning a maiden with her. “I said tonight I'd put blinkers on her and go all out. I said to Colin 'don't disappoint her and if she bounces don't take her back, just see what happens'. “She's been beaten by some nice fillies and I'd say the second there is not too bad, she's a nice filly to look at anyway."
