Odds on punters on easy Street with Bond Odds-on punters had another stress free time of it as New Bond Street won in convincing style in the Goffs Two Million Series Maiden at Naas. Billy Lee tracked the leaders early in the five furlong contest before letting the 4/11 favourite hit the front passing the two pole. The Paddy Twomey-trained filly kept on strongly in the closing stages to post a two-and-a-half length success over newcomer Alloutoflove. New Bond Street was dropping back into maiden company, having been third in a Listed race at the Curragh last month. "She's a nice filly. I ran her over six-furlongs a few times just to educate her,” said Twomey. “She came from the breeze ups and she just kind of wanted to do more than I wanted her to do. I thought while I was getting her beaten, she was learning a lot. “I think with the drop back to five (furlongs) now you are seeing the real filly. “She ran well here against the horse that won the Richmond (Man’s Best Friend). The next day Michael O'Callaghan's horse (Push The Boat Out) beat her and Aidan's (Marco Polo) was second. “I ran her back seven days later in the Listed race, I thought she could be competitive in it. She just knew she had the race the week before and she ran really well to be third. “I'd say that's as soft as she'd want it. I'd say she'd want better ground. I think she'll go to Dundalk for the five-furlong Listed race (Legacy Stakes) in two weeks time." (Quotes by John O’Riordan)
