Review ballinrobe 9th Aug
< Prince Jock continued the good run of form of trainer Tracey Collins when scoring at 9-1 in the Tim Kelly Electrical Handicap at Ballinrobe.
Always to the fore under Pat Shanahan, the Fairyhouse maiden winner moved past pacesetter The Seanachie turning out of the back straight.< Kims Dream looked a major threat entering the final furlong, but the son of Repent found more for pressure and had a neck to spare at the line.
The disappointment of the race was 9-4 favourite Snap Alam who failed to get competitive.
The Costello McDermott Handicap went to another 9-1 shot in the shape of Golden Nugget who was bouncing back from a disappointing run at Roscommon last month.
The drop to nine furlongs clearly suited the gelded son of Intikhab and Seamie Heffernan drove him home three quarters of a length ahead of long-time leader One For Joules < Anna Montana trained by Ger Lyons, took full advantage of a drop in grade in the Flannery's Bistro Claiming Race.
Keagan Latham produced the Ger Lyons-trained filly with a well-timed run up the inside rail as they turned for home and she went on to beat Mac Tiernan by three lengths.
Tom Hogan's Regal Obligation (8-1) returned to winning ways with a pillar-to-post success under Wayne Lordan in the opening Ballinrobe Musical Society All Ireland Winners Handicap.
The bang in-form Beau Michael (15-8) took the main jumps race on the card - the F.B.D. Hurdle.
Following a Flat win at this track and novice chase success at the Galway Festival, Adrian McGuiness' tough front-runner went in again over the smaller obstacles when holding on from Tilabay who made a crucial mistake at the last flight of hurdles.
