There was a difference of opinion from the riders of the market principals in the Copper Coast (Ladies Pro/Am) Flat Race but Jody Townend certainly wasn't in the wrong place aboard Where's Nanny who scored decisively by four and three quarter lengths from the 11/10 favourite Cappucino
Maxine O'Sullivan took the scenic route around the outer on the market leader who was produced with every chance but Townend's mount, who had stayed on the inner, forged clear from a furlong out to give Wille Mullins yet another bumper winner.
The champion trainer's statistics in this discipline are off the charts, this being bumper winner number 35 of the season from just 63 runners.
Mullins said: "Jody found a nice strip of ground on the inside for her. She is a lovely filly by Walk In The Park and there could be more to come from her. I might give her a break now and bring her back in the spring, but we will see. She is owned by Joe Lawlor and his son Peter and they are from the Wicklow, Dublin border."
