Bill makes it seven in a row For Bill maintained her unbeaten record when claiming the mares novice hurdle at Clonmel in good style. Paul Townend let his mount hit the front after the third last and she never looked in trouble. She had her field struggling before the last and survived a blunder to come home a convincing three-length winner over Killultagh Queen. "The last day she ran she had just gone too light," said winning trainer Michael Winters. "We gave her a pop over hurdles at Dromahane recently and she was outstanding. Before she was jumping them but measuring them. "She'll go for a novice hurdle at Limerick or Fairyhouse if she's right. The break she got was the key to her."
