Summer Tide does the business for Byrnes & Brouder Summer Tide (5/2) landed the Tipperary Town Maiden Hurdle (Div I) in the hands of Kevin Brouder. Placed in a bumper and maiden hurdle last year, the Fame And Glory 6-year-old hit the front before the home straight with two to jump, and in the end was eased down to account for Chicago Time (16/1) by four and a half lengths. Winning trainer Cathal Byrnes said: "That's great to get off the mark over hurdles and the horse jumped very well for Kevin. They went a good honest gallop, he is honest and stays going. "I'm delighted for my aunt Patricia (McCarthy) and it is fantastic to get a winner for her and it is her first horse. My uncle (Pat Byrnes) bought him as a foal and point-to-pointed him (runner-up in a 4-year-old maiden at Stowlin) and that's how we came across him. "There is no plan after today, we'll see where he gets in." Quotes from Thomas Weekes
