Le Vagabond can get punters off to a perfect start at Tramore

Le Vagabond can get punters off to the perfect start by taking the opening race on this afternoon’s seven-race card at Tramore.

Eddie O’Grady’s horse looked held when falling at the last at Ballinrobe on his first start in Ireland, and made amends with an easy victory on good-to-firm ground at Thurles next time, beating Buyer Beware, who has since won his maiden.

The ex-French-trained horse struggled up in grade on his next two starts, but actually ran much better than the form-lines suggest, as he was thoroughly inconvenienced by the ground.
