Coen doubles up on Elliott's Tronador
Tronador beats Youcrackmeup

After his win on Furnace Creek Ben Coen completed a double when Tronador won the Twilight Package At Limerick Races Handicap.
The Lope De Vega gelding, trained by Gordon Elliott for M J Wasylocha, was dropped out by Coen before being asked to take closer order approaching the straight. Having moved into second on the home turn, he gradually wore down longtime leader Youcrackmeup and came home two and a half lengths in front of that rival.
Coen said: "that's my first time on him and Gordon rang me and said he's a lovely horse but you can't force him early. We didn't go mad for the first half of the race but once we swung down the back straight, we got going a bit and it suited him.
"I got a lovely run through and he stays well.
"I'm delighted and that's my first winner for Gordon."
