Review tipperary 25th Aug
Dermot Weld's Tanaza took advantage of a slight drop in class to land the Coolmore Stud Fairy Bridge Stakes at Tipperary.
The 9-4 chance beat Minding on her debut, but had struggled in the Irish 1000 Guineas and Coronation Stakes, before being similarly well beaten in a Group Two at the Curragh last time.
In contrast, odds-on favourite Creggs Pipes was in a rich vein of winning form, but Tanaza travelled smoothly upsides the market leader and Pat Smullen found a willing partner as she ran on to score by three and a half lengths.< Spirit Quartz caused a bit of an upset to land the Listed Kilfrush Stud Abergwaun Stakes.
A winner at this level at Cork in June, Robert Cowell's charge had struggled in two starts aince and was sent off a 12-1 chance as a result.
He made no mistake here, though, travelling well for Shane Foley before powering two and a quarter lengths clear of The Happy Prince
Aidan O'Brien is more used to training odds-on favourites, but his Latin Beat upset the odds to land the Camas Park Stud EBF Maiden.
Tommy Stack's Son Of Rest was sent off the 4-5 market leader and travelled ominously into contention, but Seamie Heffernan found a really willing partner in 2-1 chance Latin Beat, who kept on gamely to score by three-quarters of a length.
O'Brien's 4-5 favourite in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Premier Nursery Handicap, Utah could only run on for second behind Andy Slattery's Sir Dreamalot (5-2), who made virtually all and bounded four and a half lengths clear under Declan McDonogh.< Girl Of The Hour (-1) finished with a flourish under Kevin Manning to run out a convincing winner of the Buy Tickets Online At TipperaryRaces.ie Fillies Maiden for trainer Jim Bolger.
Killian Leonard continued his winning form of the last few days with victory aboard Edward O'Grady's Fair Game (13-2) in the Dan Bargary Appreciation Apprentice Handicap.
