Reports in which Slievecorragh (IRE) was mentioned

Wicklow Lad gives Floods a boost

Francis Flood, back in the number one berth at Cork last Sunday after a lean spell, got a small boost after losing Slievecorragh in the opener at Thurles when the lightly-weighted Wicklow Lad (12s into 9s) ran out a convincing winner of the Martinstown Opportunity Handicap Chase under Keith Donoghue. Thu 04th Nov

Express delivers in Thurles opener

It was heavy ground when Hampshire Express benefited from the final fence fall of Finian's Rainbow (now an exciting horse with Nicky Henderson) in an Inch point-to-point in March 2008 and the son of Dushyantor showed the benefit of that experience to outstay the opposition on his chasing bow in the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Beginners Chase at Thurles under Ruby Walsh.

Course-specialist Slieve wins at Clonmel

He may have only been second market-choice for the Clonmel Oil Day Handicap Hurdle but Slievecorragh turned this 81-109 heat into a one horse affair when taking it up before two out, he was clear at the last, and it was simple from there on as he went on to account for The Armed Man by four and a half lengths.

Walsh Does it in the Red & White Again

Mark Walsh has enjoyed two successes in recent times in the Tom McParland silks aboard Imaalhall and the red with the white hoop, white sleeves and the pink cap proved lucky again for the Clane, Co. Kildare pilot, this time on Slievecorragh in the Moycarkey Maiden Hurdle. Sun 21st Dec

After race at Cork Mon, 2nd Aug, 2010 (1st)

he had to battle well to win today but he was entitled to win on ratings. Handicaps are so competitive and difficult to win but these conditions suit Slievecorragh nicely. I think he can still win a race on the Flat but I have no real plans for him next.

F Flood

After race at Wexford Wed, 17th Mar, 2010 (1st)

He got a nice free lead today. We'll go for another hurdle and we'll see from there.

F Flood

After race at Naas Wed, 10th Mar, 2010 (1st)

Slievecorragh has worn blinkers on his last few starts and they have brightened him up a lot. He is an improving sort and has strengthened up too.

F Flood

After race at Clonmel Thu, 7th May, 2009 (1st)

He had been running well on the flat and I thought he'd a fair shot here. It's good to get a winner and we'll keep him going on the flat and over hurdles as long as there's a dig in the ground. He's big enough to jump a fence too.

F Flood

After race at Thurles Sun, 21st Dec, 2008 (1st)

We are delighted with him, he gave a great battling performance. We'll probably go handicapping rather than for a winners race. Mark gave him a great ride, we were a little bit worried about the ground but he seemed to handle it well. (EM)
