Its The Ice I Like ran out a convincing winner of the concluding bumper at Clonmel.

Robert Tyner 's charge pulled clear in the closing stages to post a six-and-a-half length victory over long-time leader Mini Vic

The well-backed 1/2 favourite Moon Over Mandalay failed to pick up back in third.

"It took a while to get him right but we thought he should be thereabouts," said the trainer's wife Mary Tyner.

"He showed an extra gear today. If he doesn't go for a winners bumper he'll go back hurdling."
