Honolulu Disappoints as Geordieland Scores Unraced as a juvenile, Honolulu made up for lost time last year including when third in the Ebor Handicap at York and the son of Montjeu returned to the Knavesmire to disappoint in fourth place in the Group 2 Emirates Airline Yorkshire Cup. In truth Johnny Murtagh´s mount was struggling for most of the straight, running on at one pace in the final quarter mile as Royal And Regal made the best of his way home. Geordieland, so often the bridesmaid with silver medals in this event last year, the Ascot Gold Cup and the Doncaster Cup was produced masterfully to lead late under Shane Kelly. He then survived a Steward´s Enquiry. The verdict was a head in favour of Jamie Osborne´s grey.
