Review tipperary 15th Apr

Aidan O'Brien saw Elusive Pimpernel frank St Nicholas Abbey's Racing Post Trophy win in the Craven and had further cause to cheer when Full Of Hope took Tipperary's Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.

The 1-3 market leader's task was made easier by the withdrawal of Rock Medley, but she showed a likeable attitude to beat Strandhill by a length and a quarter.

Tommy Stack's excellent start to the season continued when Mr Mojito (9-2) beat experienced rivals on his racecourse debut in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden for juveniles.

The son of Danehill Dancer moved up to tackle O'Brien's front-running Emperor Hadrian at the furlong marker and showed an impressive turn of foot to score by three lengths.

Stack suffered a reverse when his Zorija Rose failed to justify 5-4 favouritism in the Racing Post Breeze-Up Bonus Race.< Worldly Wise (9-2) was the top-rated horse in the line-up, although he had to put a moderate performance over hurdles behind him.

But just when Toraidhe appeared set to land the spoils, Pat Flynn's seven-year-old came with a wet sail under Danny Grant to get up by three-quarters of a length.< Frontier Cabin just came out on top in a blanket finish to the Dandy Man Maiden.

Dermot Weld's Flyjack looked the most likely winner when shooting clear inside the final furlong, but he faltered and allowed Augustine Leahy's newcomer to get up on the rail for a short-head defeat of an another fast finisher in fellow 14-1 chance Victor Totus

Winning jockey Fran Berry completed a double when The Bull Hayes took advantage of De Valira s refusal to race by landing the Enjoy An Evening At Tipperary Race as the 8-11 favourite.< Polar Explorer (10-1) had finished in rear on each of his four previous appearances but switching to sprinting did the trick and he came home best of all to land the Derrinstown Stud Apprentice Handicap.
