Coast follows up in style

Sun 3rd Apr 2011, 15:12

West Coast Dream made it two from two for the season when claiming the Mother's Day Handicap at the Curragh.

Andy Oliver 's charge, who was successful on his return at Leopardstown last Sunday, defied a 5lb rise for that victory in good style.

Ben Curtis always had the gelding prominent on the rail and he hit the front with two furlongs to run.

He kept on strongly in the closing stages to record a two-length victory. Notgonnagiveup finished strongly to get up for second.

"He's lightly enough raced and seems to be in good form," said Oliver.

"He doesn't seem to mind the ground as he won on good last week and heavy today.

"What happens next depends on the handicapper. He's very versatile trip wise, from six furlongs to a mile."
