Fahey's Jazz Dreamers wins readily under Slattery Jazz Dreamers ran out an easy five lengths winner of the @Tipperaryraces Apprentice Handicap (Div I) under Andrew Slattery. The 2019 champion apprentice quickly got his mount across from a wide draw and into the lead after a furlong. Slattery was able to set the fractions he wanted down the back straight and, when he asked his mount to assert early in the straight, the Red Jazz gelding quickly out daylight between himself and his pursuers. The battle was only for minor honours in the final furlong, with Olivia Valere just edging Derry Lad out of second place close home. It was a second win of the campaign for Jazz Dreamers who had won over a mile at Bellewstown last month, and he’s entered over seven furlongs at Roscommon on Monday. Winning trainer Seamus Fahey said: "Hopefully the handicapper wasn’t looking at him! We’re happy with him as he’s a cheaply bought horse and a lot of the crew are here. It’s great to have the people back racing and out enjoying themselves. “We were concerned about the trip and he actually travelled down pretty bad as well. It wasn’t the plan to make it but he broke so well that Andy decided he’d let him roll on and it worked out a treat. “I suppose if you are going to get a mile and one anywhere you’ll get it in Tipperary. We’ll have to look at a bit further that what we were running him over and maybe find something similar to this. “The last night at the Curragh he was drawn on the wrong side and all the action was on the far side and it just didn’t pan out for us.” Quotes from Alan Magee
