Last season's Point to Point Leading Handler Colin Bowe saddled newcomer Misspublican to win the concludingWaterforrd & Tramore Directors Mares Bumper at Tramore today.

Ridden by Barry O'Neill, the daughter of Overbury battled well to hold the challenge of Kim Tian Road and Johny's Lantern for a neck and short head win.

Afterwards Bowe stated “Misspublican is a full sister to Publican and is a well bred filly. We'll try for a winners' bumper now and she goes on any ground except heavy.”
