Irish jockey Oisin Murphy keeps on winning

Wednesday 8 January 2014, 5:21pm

Irish jockey Oisin Murphy continued his brilliant run of form with two wins from two starts at Geelong on Wednesday.

The 18-year-old, who is on loan to the Danny O'Brien stable until February 16, has now put together seven wins from 38 starts in a month.

He led all the way on O'Brien's Alfa Sentura in a 1700-metre maiden then showed his versatility by winning from the rear of the field on the Nigel Blackiston-trained Cadel's Gold over 2400 metres.

"He only started going in the last furlong and he galloped right to the line," Murphy said.

Murphy next rides at Seymour on Thursday where he has three horses - Sail The Stars, Rock Vantage and Mark's Matilda.

On Saturday at Flemington he is on four O'Brien-trained horses - Mambo Lady, Chateau Latour, Prairie Star and Eraset - as well as John Sadler's Prizum in the Rain Lover Handicap.
