Owner Peacock bags successive daily wins

Owner Nick Peacock registered a second winner in as many days today, as his Willie Mullins trained Authorized Art (4/6f) landed Limerick's Glin Beginners Chase under jockey Paul Townend.

Peacock's Follow The Brave was a bumper winner for Champion Trainer Mullins at Ballinrobe yesterday and today Authorized Art made virtually all in a 17 lengths win over Blackstair Rocco

Second-favourite Indigo Breeze (9/4) had been pressing the winner, but had three lengths to find, when falling at the second last.

Champion Jockey Townend had earlier picked wrong by riding Mullins' unplaced Hybery in the opener, over stablemate winner Dads Lad and following Authorized Art's success said “he enjoys jumping and has got a new lease on life doing it.

“He ran well in Kilbeggan and the experience stood to him today. When novices jump like he does it is a big advantage and he enjoys it which is a big plus.

“He was sweet when he won over hurdles at Wexford but fences have sweetened him up more.”
