No sulking today from Broadway A combination of the good ground and learning to settle better saw an improved performance from Broadway Symphony who scored on outing five in the concluding Ballinrobe Racecourse Of The Year Flat Race. After being equipped with a hood last time at Kilbeggan, that headgear was left off today and Mikey Fogarty brought through the chestnut to challenge 'Shark' Hanlon's well-fancied Film Director from over a furlong out. The victor, a 9/2 shot, soon led and stretched on in impressive style to triumph by five and a half lengths. Winning trainer Liz Doyle's partner Barry Murphy explained: "We had a bit of a job to settle him before and we put a hood on him the last day but he seemed to sulk. "They went a lovely gallop today. He has loads of ability and Mikey said he'll have no problem winning his maiden hurdle. "He might go to the Doncaster Sales." (DM & EM)
