JOHNNY Murtagh’s horses continue their good run of form and the Curragh-based trainer can look forward to having his first runner in America in a few weeks time, when True Valour takes his chance in a valuable stakes race at Del Mar.

“Our horses are in good form and they have been running consistently well all season,” Murtagh said. “That’s all that you can ask of them and we have a great team here. We have the best of owners and have great staff, but we are missing Valerie Keatley (head girl) a lot. She was here last week and it was great to see her up and about.”
