Drumlister survives scare to give Moore double Drumlister survived a scare at the final flight to give Arthur Moore a double at Clonmel this evening. The Luso gelding had thrown away victory at Killarney last time by hanging badly right but was going the right way around this time. Gareth Malone bounced the well-backed 11/10 favourite (from 11/8) out in front and asked him for an effort two from home. He looked to have the measure of Killarney conqueror Definite Knockoff going to the final hurdle but got things wrong and was down on his nose. Malone did well to sit with his mount and regained his composure to get him going again for a three-parts-of-a-length success. "My heart was in my mouth a bit at the last," admitted Moore afterwards. "Gareth rode a good race but he just met the last all wrong and he did well to find a leg. "He'll probably go back chasing now. He's had a few quick runs so we'll probably give him a break for a few weeks. "He's been very consistent and could have won all his races this year with a bit of luck." The winning rider added:- "He got me out of a hole. He just stepped at it but had enough in the tank to get himself up. "Mr Moore has been really good to me and gave me my second and third winners." Moore had also struck earlier on the Flat when Positive Vibes won under Pat Smullen. (On course reporting by Alan Magee)
