What is worth watching is the yard behind him. Trainer Ciaran Murphy, based in Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, has sent out 18 winners already this season, which marks him out as a trainer in form and worth following. When a stable is hitting those numbers, the horses coming out of it tend to be well-prepared, and a horse placed on debut is precisely the kind that a confident yard will back up quickly. With Captain Boycott having raced just one day ago, the yard — sorry, the team — are clearly keeping him busy.
There is nothing more to read into the record yet. One run, one placing, no win. But sometimes the most interesting stories are the ones just getting started.
