Cooper expecting to get good tune out of Celestial at DRF Trainer Tom Cooper is hopeful of a big run from Celestial Tune at next weekends Dublin Racing Festival at Leopardstown. Having shown promise on her first two starts, the five-year-old mare opened her account in impressive fashion at Listowel in September. The daughter of Maxios stepped up on that performance when running out an emphatic winner of a Listed race at Cheltenham on her latest outing in November. Speaking at Naas on Sunday, after saddling Shuttle Diplomacy to victory, Cooper said: “She’s all set for next weekend, all good. “She’s a very exciting mare. She has some turn of foot and she stays. “She worked up the ‘Old Vic’ last Tuesday morning and I think it’s better she’s got.” Additional reporting by Gary Carson.
