Jim Bolger and Kevin Manning enjoyed a fantastic four-timer at Gowran Park, including victory with Theophilus who looked a very bright prospect in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.

The Epsom Derby entry was sent off the 5-4 favourite on his debut, and though off the bridle before the home turn, he flew clear after the two-furlong pole, going on to score by nine lengths from Asknotwhat

The 9-2 chance stalked the early leaders before hitting the front a furlong out, and he ran on strongly up the run-in to beat Torpedo Alley by two and a half lengths.< Einsteins Folly s convincing victory in the www.gowranpark.ie For Best Offers Rated Race gave Bolger and Manning their next winner.

Odds-on favourite Diplomat attempted to make all and looked to have his rivals in a spot of trouble on the home turn, but once Einsteins Folly (3-1) found top gear, he stretched well clear and Manning was able to ease him down to a four-and-a-half-length win over Dalkova

The fourth winner for the duo came when newcomer Cosmic Cannonball (13-8 favourite) scythed through the field to land the Societies Welcome At Gowran Park Golf Club Maiden, beating Toe The Line by a length and a half.< Rathealy (9-2 favourite) came from off the pace to land the Gowran Park Centenary Weekend June 21st And 22nd Handicap for trainer Kevin Prendergast and jockey Chris Hayes, beating Prussian Eagle by half a length.
