Tipsy Mouse is Mighty Mouse at Haydock

Sue Smith’s Tipsy Mouse left his connections hoping that one day he can emulate his Grand National-winning full-brother Royal Athlete after he had put up a game performance to win at Haydock Park yesterday.

Carrying the colours of leading owner Trevor Hemmings, Tipsy Mouse’s hopes did not look at all bright jumping the last in the Haydock Park Annual Badgeholders Handicap Chase as he was five lengths adrift of the leaders Kings Mistral and Wain Mountain.
