< Ambiguity landed a gamble in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Race at Tipperary.
Aidan O'Brien's Fastnet Rock colt was supported down to 4-6 favouritism but was anchored at the rear of the five-runner field.
Donnacha O'Brien, sporting the colours of his mother Anne-Marie, brought him down the outside with his challenge and didn't want to resort to the whip, but Eacharn s resolution forced him to, although Ambiguity never looked in trouble and triumphed by a comfortable two and a quarter lengths.
