Twomey and Lee at double with impressive La Isla Mujeres Billy Lee brought up a double on his first day back from injury on the impressive La Isla Mujeres in the Listed Ardilaun Hotel Irish EBF Oyster Stakes at Galway. The strong-travelling leader began to increase her advantage approaching the home bend and soon had her 14 rivals in trouble in behind. There was no stopping La Isla Mujeres (9/4f) in the final furlong as she powered in by three and a-half lengths from Bonnie Moon (22/1) with Island Hopping a head away in third at 8/1. This was also a double for Paddy Twomey who supplied Iowa City for Lee in race two. The trainer said: "We have waited all year with for this ground, and we've had to wait. She had a good run in Down Royal and soft ground is the key to her. "I think she is good enough for the (Group 1) Prix Royal-Oak on Arc weekend and she is five-turning-six, so they might want to breed from her. She is also in the Cesarewitch, but I'd imagine they'd like to win a Group race and the Longchamp race might be the right one for her. "Billy is back, which is great, and has had two rides and two winners." Additional reporting by Tom Weekes
