A fine looking mare, the grey Miss Fancy Pants opened her account over hurdles and continued the terrific run of her trainer Noel Meade in fine style. Ridden in typical Paul Carberry style the winner had 12 in front of her approaching the third last just after the turn in but accounted for that group with relative ease to go on and score by three-and-a-half-lengths.
This was certainly far from a strong four-year-old maiden hurdle but Miss Fancy Pants jumped well in the main and the winning trainers comments after the race were interesting, ?I am a small bit surprised as I didn't think she would be fit enough," said Meade before earmarking the Fairyhouse and Punchestown festivals as future targets.
Keep It Cool came from a long way back to challenge and ran around ever so slightly before jumping the second last in front. He was third last time out at Gowran Park and should have no problem winning a similar contest.
Posh Lady was up with the leaders throughout and kept going all the way to the line holding on for third and may appreciate a change of tactics over slightly further.
Perfect Reward is proving expensive to follow having been well backed on his Irish debut when finishing fourth in the race which Keep It Cool was third and that was followed up by a small fortune lost on Eric McNamara's charge today.
Available at 13/2 early in the day he was eventually sent off a 7/4 shot at the off but only managed to finish a disappointing ninth after travelling well for a long way.
Audit's rider Eoin McCarthy reported to the Stewards Secretary that his mount "Had a high head carriage early and took time to settle into the race, hanging badly throughout. Seamus Lynch's charge was 13th at the finish. While Tony Martin trainer of Avanti Albert who was last and a distance behind his nearest rival reported, "He made a bad mistake at the second and lost his confidence thereafter.
