Library and Seamus Heffernan win at Tipperary © Photo Healy Racing
Library stepped up on two promising runs at Leopardstown to shed her maiden tag at the third attempt in the Camas Park Stud Irish EBF Fillies' Maiden at Tipperary.
Sent to the front after a furlong, the Seamie Heffernan ridden filly soon had the race in safe keeping, as her rider turned the screw on toiling rivals from over 3f out.
Well clear at the furlong pole, Heffernan could afford to ease down on the Aidan O'Brien trained runner. With this win out of the way, the daughter of Galileo looks set to have her sights raised next time.
Aidan O'Brien said; "the last day she got hung up on the pace early and Seamus gave her a lovely ride today. The plan was to get a lead and when they were going slowly, he let her dawdle to the front and she had a lovely breather around the bend before kicking.
"I'm delighted with her and she has a little bit of class. We'll look for a stakes race now, she is a lovely mover and handles that good ground very well.
"A race like the Ingabelle Stakes during Champions Weekend would suit lovely."
