Beo Go Deo

What is worth watching is the activity. Beo Go Deo raced just one day ago, which means this is a horse very much in the thick of its season, with a trainer clearly keen to give it experience and opportunities. That willingness to keep a young horse busy suggests P J F Murphy believes there is something to work with.

Murphy trains out of Castlecomer in County Kilkenny, and the yard has sent out four winners already this season — a modest but meaningful tally that shows the operation is capable of getting horses ready to win. For a yard of this size, four winners represents a real contribution to the season's efforts. Whether Beo Go Deo can become the fifth is the question, but with a trainer who is clearly not shy about running young horses and letting them learn their trade on the racecourse, the opportunity will come.
