Mozzies Sister stretched clear in impressive fashion to make a winning start 'under rules' in the mares bumper at Cork this afternoon for trainer Declan Queally.
The Arctic Cosmos had won a point-to-point at Dungarvan in late January and went to post a shot today.
Maxine O'Sullivan had her mount to the fore throughout, as she disputed with Lep Around and led the field turning for home.
Mozzies Sister eased clear passing the two pole and soon put the race to bed, going on to record an easy 14-length win.
Queally said:- "That was brilliant. We bought her from Ciaran and Liam Fennessy who I am friendly with and they recommended her. I rode in point to points with Ciaran for years and he told me to buy this one.
"We didn't have her long before her (second) point to point and I took a chance running her as it was local, but she bolted up. I knew when she was only 70% ready, that there was a lot more to come.
"I was hoping to come here for the point to point bumper on Easter Monday but we made a small change and were able to book Maxine.
"She might get an entry at Aintree or Punchestown, depending on what the syndicate think but she is decent. She is a lovely racehorse and I am mad about her.
"The owners (For The Love Of It Syndicate) are a good crew of farmers from west Waterford and they're thrilled to have a good one."
