Long Live The King no longer a maiden
Those who kept the faith in Long Live The King and there were plenty (7/2 into 5/2) were rewarded when he got off the mark at the sixth time of asking in the concluding tipperaryraces.ie Maiden.
A beaten favourite four times previously, the blinkered son of Galileo was sent to the front from the outset for the first time here and those tactics paid dividends for the three-year-old tackling this sort of trip (an extended mile and a half) for the initial occasion. He stayed on determinedly to beat Let It Show.
Joseph O’Brien rode Long Live The King for his father Aidan and the eighteen-year-old said: "He stayed galloping well. He is genuine and stayed going."
