That third-place finish is no reason for disappointment. Debut runs for two-year-olds are often as much about education as they are about winning, and simply finishing in the frame first time out suggests there is something there worth following. The team will have learned a great deal from the run.
What gives real reason for optimism is who is doing the training. G M Lyons, based at Dunsany in County Meath, has sent out 49 winners already this season — that is the kind of output that marks out a yard operating at the very top of its game. Horses from this stable are consistently competitive, and a young horse arriving there with promise is in exactly the right hands to find out how good she can be.
