Tou times it well for Corbett

Rathnaleen Tou timed things well to get her head in front in the 80-95 handicap hurdle at Tramore this evening.

Eamonn Corbett was rowing along in seventh placed on the 14/1 shot before the second last but she picked up well going to the final flight.

Harry Kelly's charge pressed long-time leader Pakie's Dream at the last and got to the front on the run-in to record a length-and-a-quarter victory. Courtin Bb edged the runner-up spot close home by a short-head.

The winner had chased home Ourauldman at Clonmel on her previous outing.

Kelly said afterwards:- "She had a very good run the last day and improved from it. I fancied her here today but handicaps are handicaps and we fancied one yesterday but didn't get any luck in running.

“I'm delighted for her owner John Moylan, he is a gentleman and I have the filly about two and a half months.

“The horses are running well and it's nice to get one on the board. She is in on Monday at Listowel and we'll see how she is after this."
