THE Johnny Murtagh-trained Sonnyboyliston took his earnings to well over €1 million with his second-place finish in the $2.5 million Red Sea Handicap in Saudi Arabia last Saturday.

Owned by the Kildare Racing Club, Sonnyboyliston collected €440,000 for connections last weekend in Riyadh. This can be added to the €350,000 he earned for winning the Ebor at York last August and the €285,000 he collected for winning the Irish St Leger in September.
