Review tipperary 11th Aug

< Ballet Shoes looks to have a bright future after running out a commanding winner of the Coolmore Ivawood Stakes at Tipperary.

Aidan O'Brien's 11-4 chance was always handily placed by Donnacha O'Brien, who came towards the stands rail on the home straight and powered away from Lethal Steps scoring by three and a quarter lengths.< Treasuring put in a fair effort in midfield in the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot in June, and showed her class when winning under top weight in the Racing Again 31st August Nursery Handicap.

Ger Lyons' even-money favourite got away well under Colin Keane and never really looked back, easing to a length and three-quarter success over India Rain < Magic Bear made it three wins from just five career starts by showing a devastating turn of foot in the Follow Tipperary On Facebook Handicap.

Eddie Lynam's 11-4 favourite was off the pace entering the final two furlongs, but once she hit top gear under Oisin Orr she cut her rivals down to size, scything through to beat Sahreej by a length and a half.

Young apprentice Nathan Crosse added another winner to his tally when getting Raramauri home in the Foran Equine Irish EBF Auction Fillies Maiden.

Crosse was happy to keep the Willie McCreery-trained 6-1 chance wide of the main group for much of the race and that tactic paid off, as she came home well towards the stands' side, beating Kimono Girl by a length and three-quarters.< Specific Gravity put in an irresistible late charge to land the McGrath Oil Claiming Race.

Ado McGuinness' 12-1 chance picked up a real head of steam in the closing stages under Ronan Whelan and swept past the remainder, beating Seanie by three-quarters of a length.

John Levins' Eleuthera (6-1) landed the first division of the TipperaryRaces Handicap under Donagh O'Connor, while the second division went to the Aidan Howard-trained The Last Indian (9-1) under Pat Smullen.
