Review ballinrobe 2nd May
< Dodgybingo showed his appreciation for having his sights lowered by landing the Mulberry Restaurant At Breaffy Hurdle at Ballinrobe.
Down the field when sent to Cheltenham for the Fred Winter, Noel Meade's four-year-old was much happier in this company and bowled along at the head of affairs.< Linger tried to make a race of it, but Sean Flanagan got the fractions spot-on because Dodgybingo (11-2) had plenty left in the tank and went away again to cross the line with six and a half lengths to spare.< Hello Sweetie (4-1) bounced back to form to claim top honours in the richest race on the card, the Breaffy House Resort Handicap Chase.
Pat Collins' mare has been highly tried on numerous occasions but relished this assignment and after taking it up shortly following the third-last, stayed on to see off Eight Till Late by four lengths.< Timi Roli had the distinction of being Willie Mullins' first runner of the new season but, for the third time from as many starts in Ireland, had to settle for third in the Healy Mac's At Breaffy Maiden Hurdle.
The prize went to Ellmarie Holden's 9-4 second-favourite Coolmeen Hill who showed good acceleration to go clear on the turn and beat Jacobs Well by four lengths.
His jockey Davy Russell doubled up when driving home the Arthur Moore-trained Political Theatre to account for fellow 7-4 joint-favourite Dawn Raider by a length and a half in the Spa At Breaffy Maiden Hurdle.< Rocky Court broke his duck over fences in the Weddings At Breaffy Beginners Chase.
The 12-1 shot pulled up lame on his debut for Steve Mahon at Fairyhouse last month but put that behind him with a four-and-a-half-length defeat of Black Warrior < Andratx (13-2) followed up his Downpatrick success in the Leisure Club At Breaffy Handicap Hurdle, while 9-2 chance Grey Mountain Mist took the Events Arena At Breaffy Handicap Hurdle.
