ELITE DISPLAY FROM CRYSTAL IN DERBY TRIAL STAKE

Ian Fortune

On Thursday evening, Elite Crystal provided handler Myles Roban with a second success in the Enniscorthy Boylesports Derby Trial Stake in four years following the victory of the talented Elite Black in 2019.

Owned by the Somemothersdohave Syndicate, the daughter of Magical Bale and Paradise Summer was much sharper at boxes than a week earlier and it made all the difference. Moving to the front before the bend, the September ’20 whelp proceeded to make every inch.

Marlfield Trent did stay on strongly to get within a length at the line but Elite Crystal booker her Derby ticket by three parts of a length in 30.09. Karlow Mac was a distant third.
