Sky is the limit for Amarillo after gritty debut success

Barry O'Neill followed up his six victories a week earlier with a Borris House double, the first of which came courtesy of the Colin Bowe-trained Amarillo Sky in the first division of the Goffs UK Aintree
Sale four-year-old maiden.

Strongly pressed at the second-last by the Ellen Doyle-trained Tag Man, Bowe's gelding dug deep from the back of the last to secure an eventual three-quarters of a length victory.

"He's a nice horse who I bought from Johnny Collins at the Land Rover sale and he'll head to the Cheltenham sales," said Bowe.
