Review roscommon 10th Jul

< Flying Fairies stayed on best of all to claim Listed honours in the Lenebane Stakes at Roscommon.

A fair fourth when upped to a mile and a half for the first time in the Munster Oaks, John Oxx's filly had slightly less to travel this time but still left it late in the hands of Gary Carroll.

After cutting out the running with Act Of Valour Glamourous Approach was really game in front, but she was collared inside the final furlong by 14-1 chance Flying Fairies, who went on to score by a length and a quarter.

There was drama at the start of the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden, with two withdrawn, but it didn't affect Burgundy Boy who battled hard to break through.

Sheila Lavery's 100-30 shot disputed the lead with Port Lions and although neither gave an inch in the straight, Burgundy Boy flashed past the post a head to the good under Carroll.< Aspen Belle is in the form of her life at present and made every post a winning one to land the Property Partners Earley Auctioneers Fillies Handicap at odds of 5-1.< Panstarr was another to do it the hard way and wasn't for catching in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.

The Jim Bolger-trained 14-1 chance has had her share of opportunities and was well beaten in a Gowran Park handicap on her previous outing, but she looked much happier bowling along at the head of affairs and stretched four and a quarter lengths away from Dawn Choir

Bolger and Manning followed up when Slaney Street also made all the running in the Roscommon Herald Handicap.

Just two days on from finishing a respectable fourth at Naas, the 9-2 shot is clearly thriving on his racing because he answered every question put to him by Manning and saw off Auckland by three-quarters of a length.

Sean Davis drove Tom Dooley (4-1) out to a short-head defeat of stablemate Alans Pride in the Supervalu's Roscommon Apprentice Handicap, while Powersbomb won the Lilac Rooms Maiden.
