LATE BURST FROM LYREEN PEARL TO LAND THE 1XBET IRELAND TOUR SERIES A5 FINAL AT YOUGHAL

Barry Drake

LYREEN PEARL (Malachi-Our Dog Bridie) produced a strong finish to win the feature in Youghal on Saturday, the €1,500 to the winner 1xBet Ireland Tour Series A5 final.

Favourite Renata took a flyer to lead and she looked in control throughout, however, Lyreen Pearl had other ideas late on. The 10-3 winner has returned to form in recent runs and she put on a big finish to reel in Renata late on. The strong running winner isn't the most straightforward, but she did enough to win the big pot. A head the margin, in 29.48. Renata lost very little in defeat and there was three lengths back to Slaneyside Pedro in third.
