Review dundalk 24th Nov
< Clear Skies continued her great November with success in the Crowne Plaza Jockey & Trainer Awards Handicap at Dundalk.
Victorious here in each of the previous two weeks, Aidan O'Brien's four-year-old was hit with an 11lb rise for the latest of those, but is clearly not done improving.
She ran down long-time leader Carried approaching the final furlong and Donnacha O'Brien drove her out to cross the line with a length in hand as the 5-2 favourite.
Joseph O'Brien got in on the family act when Unpretentious (6-1) made a successful debut for the stable in the Dundalk Stadium Business Club 2018 Fillies Maiden.
The French import stuck her neck out well in the closing stages in the hands of Sean Corby to pip Lady Nathaniel by a neck, with Hope Lake just a head away in third.< Princess Yaiza (11-2) turned over odds-on favourite Elegant Drama in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Fillies Maiden.
The daughter of Casamento showed promise in a couple of turf maidens but improved for the switch to an artificial surface to hold off the well-touted newcomer by half a length.< Check Your Pockets gained a breakthrough triumph in the Joe Wall's 70th Birthday Nursery Handicap.
Third on her debut but disappointing in two subsequent starts, the John Kiely-trained 6-1 chance was given an initial mark of 69 and took advantage, beating Mojambo by a neck.< Aggression (3-1) was touched off by the narrowest of margins here last week but gained compensation with a length-and-a-half defeat of Flawlessly in the www.dundalkstadium.com Handicap.< New Story the 11-4 joint-favourite, ran out an emphatic winner of the Irishinjuredjockeys.com Claiming Race, while Invincible Ryker justified 5-2 favouritism in the Floodlit Friday Nights At Dundalk Stadium Apprentice Handicap and Clare Island proved much too strong in the Crowne Plaza Hotel Race & Stay Handicap.
