Outlawed Tunes hits right notein maiden

The Brian Lordan-trained newcomer Outlawed Tunes hinted that a bright track career lies in wait by destroying the opposition in the five-year-old geldings’ maiden at yesterday’s Waterford Foxhounds point-to-point meeting at Lisselan outside Tramore.

On an afternoon that witnessed just six races, Outlawed Tunes (7/1) tracked Ofallthestars in second spot until going to the front at half-way in this truly run 17-runner contest.

The eventual winner eased clear for Benny Walsh from four out and the son of Lord Americo duly defeated the vastly more-experienced Loudmouth by 15 lengths in the colours of Noeleen Jones with a six-length gap to the third-placed newcomer Byrnes Rock.
