Three trainers who were on the scoreboard here on Monday repeated the feat on Tuesday, but for the partnership of John Kiely and his nephew, Tommy, it was a red-letter day as they put a first win on their card when Liberated Light took the William Hill Epic Value Qualified Riders’ Maiden.
Settled off the pace by John Gleeson, the full brother to A Dream To Share came wide to start his challenge and found plenty in the closing stages. The Banger Doyle fluffed the start and ran a remarkable race to finish a close second, the two nicely clear of the third.
