Review thurles 25th Feb

Western Leader ran his rivals ragged with a superb all-the-way win in the Michael Purcell Memorial Novice Hurdle at Thurles to spark a 10-1 double for trainer John 'Shark' HanlonThu 25th Feb

Basil delights Katie & Nash

A year ago in the Tipperary (Lady Riders) Handicap Hurdle Johnee Joblot ran out at the last when still in with every chance under Katie Walsh but the Kildare woman had a happier experience twelve months on when she brought home Red Basil a four and a half length winner. Thu 25th Feb

After race at Thurles Thu, 25th Feb, 2010 (1st)

When this race was lost to the frost two weeks ago, Katie convinced me to wait and it has been worth waiting for. We always liked him but the star performance has to go to his owner, Eamonn Duignan to give a nine-year-old another chance. He cracked his pelvis and he'll probably go chasing because he is a fantastic jumper. Katie gave him a fantastic ride.
