Two from two up north for Liz Doyle

Liz Doyle made her trip to Downpatrick pay as the two horses she took on the long haul north obliged at combined odds of near 13/1, Whizzzey Rascal adding to the third race gains of Tigroney with a winning run under Finny Maguire in the bumper.

Ms Doyle was impressed with the steer that Whizzzey Rascal got in the Party After Racing INH Flat Race saying: "It was a beautiful ride and I knew we had to be positive today.

"I told him to kick at the third last as I knew she would gallop the whole way to the line. She worked super two days ago."

Whizzzey Rascal was always to the fore and the 7/4 favourite got the better of her chief market rival, Taras Call by three and a half lengths.

"She's a half sister to Clondaw Warrior so hopefully she's as tough as him and wins as much as him!," further disclosed the winning trainer.

"She's a sweet filly and she will make a wonderful broodmare."
