Ruby and Conem land triller

Sun 25th Jan 2009, 14:37

Ruby Walsh and Conem came from a seemingly impossible position to win the Foxrock Handicap Chase at Leopardstown.

The pair appeared to be struggling as the pace quickend on the run to the second last fence and were only tenth turning for home.

When Ruby switched Conem to the stand's side approaching the last the gelding picked up for him and Ruby drove him out to the line where he got his head in front to win by a neck.

The winner trained by Willie Austin relishes testing conditions as he showed when scoring twice over hurdles at last September's Listowel festival.
