Park Ranger ran out an easy winner of the 1m1f handicap at Tipperary under a cool ride by Fran Berry.

Christy Roche 's charge (backed from 7/2 this morning into 9/4 favourite on course) weaved his way into the lead just inside the final furlong.

Berry only had to nudge his rival out to pull clear for a cheeky four-and-a-half length success.

The winner had just lost out in a tight finish when fourth at Leopardstown last time but proved a different class today.

Roche was not on hand to welcome back his charge.
