A Couple of Tramore Surprises

Following Old Peak Road s 16/1 success in the 6.50, results continued to swing back in the bookmakers favour as 25/1 shot Rock'n Roll Kate put form figures of 0pp behind her to battle to a length win in the Ernst & Young Handicap Chase.

Denis Ahern trains this former Kildorrery point-to-point winner and of course the Dungourney meeting is run on the lands of the Ahern family. The successful handler said, "The ground last time at Kilbeggan was bottomless so the better going and the tongue tie helped her here. She'll go back to Kilbeggan for a three mile one furlong handicap chase next Friday."

Mark Walsh rode the daughter of Flemensfirth and her win ensured the Jackpot pool of E2852.00 wasn't won. The Jackpot at Dundalk wasn't won either so there will be a combined rollover of 4107.00 Euros to Tramore tomorrow. (EM)
