Piazzini s two previous efforts for Ger Keane and her current owners weren't without merit despite the 'naught naught' form figures. She put a '1' next to her name now, and did so in style in the Follow Tipperary On Facebook Handicap.

Keane's son Colin was aboard the former Moyglare and Dermot Weld performer for the first time here.

Piazzini, a 2,000 Euro buy last November, was soon dictating in this five furlong sprint.

Ridden to assert from over a furlong out, the successful Kyllachy filly stayed on well inside the final furlong to easily beat Pillar by three and a half lengths.

"The fast ground plays to her strengths and the easier five furlongs suited her," said the winning rider.

"After her last run we ironed out a problem and she is in foal to Tamayuz. Hopefully she can win again before going to the paddocks."
