Review limerick 18th Mar

< Knockfierna notched her fourth victory over fences with a near-faultless display in the ITBA Fillies Scheme EBF Dawn Run Mares Novice Chase at Limerick.

Seemingly giving subsequent Cheltenham Festival winner Sir Des Champs a run for his money before running out at Limerick over Christmas, Charles Byrnes' classy seven-year-old had since redeemed herself with victory at Thurles and she was sent off the red-hot 8-11 favourite to double up.

In front possibly sooner than ideal after Belle Brook fell four from home, Barry Geraghty was then happy to take a lead from Special Token until cruising past at the last and easing home by nine lengths.< Noras Fancy (7-1) returned to winning ways for the Mangan's in the Listed Kerry Group EBF Mares Novice Hurdle.

Always up with the pace under trainer Jimmy Mangan's son, Patrick, the six-year-old got her head in front at the second last and forged two and three-quarter lengths clear of Madam Bovary

It was another father-and-son combination that came out on top in the Ballynoe Stables Handicap Hurdle, with Andrew McNamara guiding his father's Peccatorum to an impressive success.

Waited with until after the final flight of hurdles, the 33-1 shot burst through to take it up from Whiskey Hall and he scooted to a six and a half-length victory.

The family affair was complete when Patrick Mullins rode his father Willie's Mozoltov to an easy win in the Kevin Frost Memorial INH Flat Race.< Swanfold (2-1 favourite) was driven out by Mark Bolger to beat Big Game Hunter by a length and a quarter in the Charleville Cheese Beginners Chase, while Barry Cash partnered Doctor Woodfield (12-1) to victory in the Friends Of Liam Hogan Handicap Chase.

The Student Raceday 29th March Maiden Hurdle went to 33-1 outsider Ample Appeal for the Philip Rothwell yard.
