Taisce Naisiunta (7/1) produced a nice performance on debut to land the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden at Tipperary for Jim Bolger and Kevin Manning.
The Lawman filly was never far away and she was ridden to lead a furlong out. From there she went on to defeat Greyscape and Hasselnott the market principals, by two and a quarter lengths and one and a quarter.
"Kevin was delighted with her and said they went a good pace. She had been working very well at home but we were obviously worried about the horses with previous form," disclosed Bolger's travelling head man Ger Flynn.
"She quickened up really well though, and showed a very good attitude. We've a few nice fillies at home and this one will probably now go for a Listed race at Naas on the Monday before Punchestown." (TW & EM)
