Coldamour justifies support in bumper The Peter Fahey-trained Coldamour saw off all challengers when landing a nice touch in the concluding bumper at Thurles this afternoon. Katie Walsh jumped out in front on the 6/1 shot, who had been backed from prices as big as 22/1 this morning. The daughter of Azamour was asked to stretch early in the straight and kept on well in the closing stages to record a two-and-a-half length victory. Discorama chased her home with Contented running on well in the closing stages to snatch the third spot at the post. "I was quietly confident but it was a real talking race and there were a lot of horses fancied,” said Fahey. "She has done nothing wrong, we brought her to schooling races and she won them, and she worked with Peregrine Run at Leopardstown. “She is a very nice filly and coming here I was hoping she'd run a really good race and I'm not shocked she has won. "She'll go to Punchestown for the EBF Grade 3 mares' bumper next - she's a nice one to have and has schooled over hurdles too." (Quotes by Thomas Weekes)
