Son Of Leading Light Proves All Heart At Dromahane

Tigers Roar (5g Leading Light - Almnadia, by Alhaarth) rallied bravely to land the second division of the Five-Year-Old Geldings Maiden at Dromahane on Sunday afternoon.

The Mattie Collins-trained bay tracked the leader under Chris O’Donovan, joining at the seventh fence and asserted from four out. Briefly headed on the run-in, he battled back to win by a head, as the front pair drew ten lengths clear of the field.

The sales ring now beckons for Tigers Roar, who is owned by Mrs DP Magnier and Mrs BG Collins. Bred by Philamena Stafford, he hails from the first crop of top-class stayer Leading Light.
