Bibi gets off mark over hurdles

Sat 8th Aug 2009, 18:16

Bold Bibi opened her jumping account when sticking on well to land the LARCC Cancer Care Mares Maiden Hurdle.

Niall "Sippers" Madden sent her to the front after the third last and she kept on well to score by two lengths from Ever Dreaming

"She deserved that on her Flat form - she was good on the Flat," said Carlow-based trainer William Murphy.

"I train mainly point-to-pointers but have a few for the track and have had three winners this season.

"We'll keep her to mares races and looks for some black type along the way."

Paul Carberry received a fall from Asigh Pearl in the race and was stood down for the rest of the evening with facial lacerations.
