Tom bolts up on debut
Forty Foot Tom gave bookmakers a good result in the concluding Athlumney (Pro/Am) Flat Race putting up a most impressive performance on his racecourse bow under Colin Motherway, coming home by no less than twenty four lengths at odds of 25/1.
The son of King's Theatre showed an eye-catching turn of foot to put the issue beyond doubt from over a furlong out, easing clear to see off Our Aodh and Not Before Eight Medical Card bidding to give Noel Meade a treble, ended up finishing a disappointing fifth at odds of 8/11.
Winning trainer Daniel Miley said: "We knew he'd go on the ground and we were just hoping after that. He is largely unfurnished and I thought he was a bit weak. He is from a strong family though and his full-brother (Frisco Depot) was second in a bumper for Dessie Hughes."
