Ballydoyle Take First Two at Gowran

Seanie Levey's mount, Liszt had the experience of a run under his belt and he ended up the leading Ballydoyle hope in the market for the opener, as the newcomer, Moon Indigo , under Seamie Heffernan, drifted out to four to one.

As it transpired money arrived for the Jim Bolger-trained Fergus Mciver (6s in the morning into 3/1 favourite). However he couldn't get to grips with the Levey partnered, Liszt, who made all, and despite wandering a little, stayed on best to prevail by two lengths over the 'jolly,' with Dazzle Dancer a further length and a half back in third. Moon Indigo could only manage sixth.

The roles were reversed half-an-hour later as this time Heffernan was on the first-timer, Byzantine , who took it up from the two furlong pole and possessed too much for six to four on favourite, Ebashan (from at least evens this morning), beating that fellow by a length and a quarter. There was a further five lengths back to Seanie Levey, on the stable companion of the winner, Von Jawlensky .
