Family success for O'Briens

Mon 8th Aug 2011, 19:14

Fairylike turned an open-looking Burleigh Accountants Handicap into a procession when running out an easy winner.

Joseph O'Brien, carrying his mother Anne-Marie's colours, let his mount stride on half a mile out.

The Oratorio filly had her rivals struggling before the bend and she kept on strongly to post a convincing six-length success.

The winner had disappointed at Galway last time having been placed on her two previous starts.

"She didn't handle the track at Galway or at Tramore (earlier in season)," revealed O'Brien junior.

"She travelled sweetly today and did it well."
