Review tramore 8th Oct

The formidable team of Willie Mullins and Paul Townend struck gold in the Guillamene Maiden at Tramore as Tawaagg justified skinny odds with a runaway success.

The five-year-old was sent off at 5-4 having won his last couple of starts over hurdles and was not hard pressed to beat Hassuna by eight lengths.

"Tawaagg will mix it between hurdling and the Flat now. He'll probably go for a Flat handicap next although he will be penalised for today's win," said Mullins.

Edward O'Grady's Law Officer proved far too good for his rivals in the Sponsor A Race At Tramore Handicap under Wayne Lordan, the first leg of a double on the card for the jockey.

The 5-1 chance quickened to the front as the field turned for home and soon had the race in safe keeping, passing the post four and a half lengths ahead of The Ride Aint Free

O'Grady said: "Law Officer may have one more run over hurdles and then will be put away.

"He should make a nice dual purpose Flat/hurdler next season."

Lordan's brace was completed as The Pott Reidy opened his account at the 15th time of asking in the Waterford & Tramore Directors Handicap.

Captain Audience made every yard of the running under Katie Walsh to take the Lisselan Ladies INH Flat Race.

David Myerscough's charge was sent off at 11-8 to go one place better than his recent second at Clonmel and duly obliged by a length and three-quarters.

"Captive Audience deserved to win on his form and will go jumping now," said Myserscough.

"He has some jump to him so we may send him chasing straightaway."< Hatton's Wood put up a bold display of front running to take the Newtown Handicap Chase, while the www.tramore-racecourse.com Maiden Hurdle went the way of 5-2 chance Royal Choice
