Egyptian Warrior slammed the opposition at Listowel© Photo Healy Racing
His siblings vary from Rock Of Gibraltar staying hurdler Gimli's Rock to his own-brother, Racing Post Trophy scorer, Kingbarns, and on outing number seven Egyptian Warrior got off the mark in the Listowel Printing Works Maiden under Joseph O'Brien.
Now wearing blinkers having sported cheek-pieces in the past, Egyptian Warrior stayed on much too powerfully in the closing stages of this mile and a half contest to slam Hareth by seven lengths with the well-gambled favourite Park Place having to settle for third.
Joseph acknowledged of his mother and father's charge: "It was probably a fairly ordinary race but he picked up well. The blinkers probably helped.
"He was disappointing in a couple of bumpers but the ground was bottomless and today's ground was soft but it wasn't winter soft." (TW & EM)
