Tooth Fairy bags valuable win

The Tooth Fairy gained valuable winning brackets when pulling clear late on to land the concluding Sean Cleary Memorial Fillies Maiden at Galway.
It was a first and last race double on the card for Aidan and Donnacha O'Brien as the beautifully-bred daughter of Galileo, a full-sister to Arc winner Found, got her head in front.
Having made the running the 4/5 favourite was headed over half a mile out as Big Bad Sal swooped to the front.
Donnacha O'Brien was at work on The Tooth Fairy passing the two pole but she picked up well to lead early in the straight and record a comprehensive four-and-a-half length win over Tidal Action
"I got a grand lead early and once I stuck into her she found plenty again,” said Donnacha O'Brien.
"She is valuable having won now and I thought it wasn't a bad performance. She put it to bed well and kept galloping when I got stuck in."
