Tom Mullins introduced a potentially smart newcomer when Fascile Mode quickened up nicely to make a winning debut in the Plusvital INH Flat Race at Limerick.
In a well contested event that featured seven previous winners, the son of Walk In The Park proved too strong for Lecky Watson and Special Cadeau
Both the second and third were trained by Willie Mullins, brother of winning trainer Tom(Mullins).
“He did a blinding bit of work a week ago. He was always a nice horse and he ticks all the boxes, he's a nice horse and he has the pedigree,” said Tom Mullins.
“When he did a nice bit of work we said we'd take a chance here. We were going to run Monday but Charlie was injured so we came here instead.
“Charlie is cool, he's only 18 but he's a very good rider.
“He's obviously a very good horse to do that first time. He beat a heap of winners there.
“Hopefully the phone will be ringing and hopefully one of those multi-millionaires will come and buy him!”
Paddy Powers introduced Fascile Mode into Cheltenham bumper market at 14/1.
