Elliott's Mollys Mango looks a sweet filly

After Cool Survivor in the Listed novice hurdle, Gordon Elliott completed a double when Mollys Mango won the mares' bumper under Jamie Codd.
Always close to the pace, the four-year-old led early in the straight and stayed on well to beat Stormalong by five and a half lengths.
A daughter of the King's Theatre stallion Clovis Du Berlais, the winner had been third on debut last month at Punchestown.
Elliott's assistant Ian Amond said: "She had a good first run and improved from it. She handled that ground well and Jamie gave her a straightforward ride.
"I'm not sure if Gordon will stick to bumpers or go hurdling now. She is a grand mare and has a good page."
