Kerry jockey Oisin Murphy has three winners after first three days at Royal Ascot meeting
Murphy was in fine form on day three of the five-day meeting, which began Tuesday and continues until Saturday at the famed racecourse in Berkshire, just west of London. Murphy was particularly impressive in getting Arabian Story up to the winning line first in the Britannia Stakes (Heritage Handicap) Class 2 race over 1 mile for trainer Saeed bin Suroor. Arabian Story was in touch with leaders after the first and disputed the lead over one furlong out, before being pushed along by Murphy to take the lead inside final 100 yards to get up by a neck ahead of La Botte (7/1) ridden by Jamie Spencer for trainer Harry Eustace in the field of 20. Murphy took his total of winners to three in the final race of the day, the Buckingham Palace Stakes (Handicap) over 7f, when he rode the Andrew Balding trained Never So Brave (4/1f) to a two and one-quarter length win over Akkadian Thunder (7/1), with another two and a quarter lengths back to Holguin (16/1). Murphy timed his race perfectly, finding room up the inside rail and pushing hard inside the final furlong for the win. On Wednesday, the Kerry man opened his account in the Kensington Palace Stakes (Fillies' Handicap) over one mile with a one-length winning ride aboard 11/1 shot Miss Information, trained by Balding, ahead of Snellen (25/1), with Cheshire Dancer in third. In Thursday's feature race, the Ascot Gold Cup, Murphy was well beaten into fifth place on Coltraine (33/1) for Balding, while in Wednesday's feature, the Prince Of Wales's Stakes, he placed third on another Balding horse, See The Fire, a 7/2 chance that finished four and a half lengths behind winner Ombudsman. In Friday's feature, the Group 1 Coronation Stakes for fillies, Murphy rides the Ollie Sangster trained Flight, which finished second in the 1,000 Guineas.
