Review clonmel 17th Feb

Thu 17th Feb 2011, 17:10

The well-backed Organisedconfusion (6-4 favourite), trained by Arthur Moore and ridden by Davy Russell, eventually took the Powerstown Chase at Clonmel, but there was more than a slice of luck involved.

Long-time leader Top Of The Rock fell two out, hampering the winner in the process, and seemingly leaving See U Bob and Mr Warbucks to battle it out.

But See U Bob then crashed out with the race at his mercy and after Russell galvanised his mount, the jolly finished strongly to claim a tiring Mr Warbucks on the run up to the line.< Quarryvale was another fortunate winner after Hidden Crack got the last all wrong and took a crunching fall in the Lisronagh Novice Handicap Chase.

The 6-1 winner, ridden by Paddy Mangan for father Jimmy Mangan, was landing her second career win and ultimately had 13 lengths in hand over Curragh Grey

There was another family affair as market leader Domination (9-4) got off the mark at the fourth time of asking over timber in the opening opening Clonmel Maiden Hurdle.

Charles Byrnes' juvenile, ridden by the trainer's son Brian, travelled stylishly in fourth throughout and arrived on the scene two from home.

He eased to the front appraoching the last and went on to beat Couleur De La Loi by seven lengths.

The last fence took another hammering in the Kilsheelan Beginners Chase, with Paul Nolan's Warhead (9-2), a second winner for Russell, taking advantage of Fennis Boy's tumble.< Fernhurst Lad wore down Caddy Man to claim the Demense Maiden Hurdle.

The pair were locked together from two out but Caddy Man tired having been to the fore throughout the two and a half-mile contest.

The Debbie Hartnett-trained winner had two lengths in hand at the line, with Rich Revival third.

The concluding Suir Handicap Hurdle went to 25-1 chance Molko Jack
