After race at Clonmel Thu, 4th Feb, 2016 (1st)

She didn't travel as well today but the ground was more tacky. We were lucky but over the course of a year some go with you and some go the other way. She could run next in a chase possibly at Downpatrick. She is owned and bred by Lar Skelly and his wife Kitty who are from the The Ward, which is between Finglas and Ashbourne.
