Dara Tango beats Landenstown Lady at Clonmel© Photo Healy Racing
Dara Tango (11s into 7s) caught Landenstown Lady in the www.clonmelraces.ie Novice Hurdle to prevail by a length.
Tony Martin trains Dara Tango, a French-bred son of Lando for Daniel Harnett and Aidan Shiels and he carries the Dunguib silks of the former.
Ruby Walsh rode Dara Tango and he said: "He ran well the last day in a handicap hurdle at Listowel. He got stuck in the ground there after he travelled well turning in.
"He was the best in on the 4yo weights and I'm surprised the price he was. The ground is the key to him. The country is full of horses like him waiting for good ground. It's not just the farmers who have had a bad summer!" (DM & EM)
