Mic Drop scores with a degree of authority Bred by owner Peter Tarrant, Mic Drop (5/1) followed up a win at Limerick in May when landing Wexford's featured Tintern Trails Handicap Chase over two miles. Josh Williamson's mount had moved into a strong-travelling third when meeting some interference from a loose horse after three out, but led before the next and used that same loose horse as something to aim at as he was ridden out to beat Femme Magnifique by five and a-half lengths. Winning trainer David O'Brien commented "He is a horse that is improving. My horses were sick all the winter. I always liked this horse. He won his point-to-point, he won his bumper, then he lost his way.  "The owner is after being so patient with him and, thank God, he'll reap the rewards now."  Additional reporting by John O'Riordan
