Aidan O'Brien secured a Tipperary double when Arya Tara impressed in the Follow TipperaryRaces On Twitter Median Auction Maiden.

Ana O'Brien was aboard the 6-4 chance and tracked the pacesetting Lambeau Field throughout much of the contest.

The front runner appeared to be in command turning for home, but Arya Tara picked up well in the final two furlongs to win by three and a half lengths.

The double started when Pedestal showed the benefit of his Curragh run four days earlier when landing the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.

O'Brien's 9-4 favourite was always to the fore under Seamie Heffernan, and despite holding his head a little high and drifting across to the near rail, he won going away, beating Mayleaf Shine by a length and three quarters, with another O'Brien runner, Justice Frederick in third.

O'Brien only just missed out in the first division of the TipperaryRaces.ie Maiden Hurdle as his Mai Fitzs Jack was pipped by Tony Martin's Heartbreak City

Mai Fitzs Jack looked in control approaching the last, but a clumsy leap allowed Jack Kennedy to get Heartbreak City (4-7 favourite) in front near the line, winning by a head.< Ostatnia proved too strong for her rivals to make it two wins from as many starts at this track in the Follow Tipperary On Facebook Handicap.

Willie McCreery's charge was sent off a 7-2 chance despite disappointing on her first two starts, but she travelled well for Billy Lee and shot past the pacesetting Chiclet to win by a length and a quarter.< Henry's Girl (9-2) made a mockery of her handicap mark when routing the field in the Tipperary BBQ Evening Handicap for trainer John Kiely and jockey Niall McCullagh, coming home five lengths clear of Black Benny

Jessie Harrington's Weather Watch (9-2) took advantage of the horrible last-flight fall of Beau Mome to take the second division of the maiden hurdle under Mark Bolger.
