Davy Condon completed a double on the evening when Jamsie Hall took the jogforjockeys.ie Handicap Hurdle in impressive fashion.
Condon, successful earlier aboard Cnoc Na Sioga arrived full of running on the well-backed 5/2 favourite approaching two out.
Having his first run for the Gordon Elliott yard, the nine-year-old gelding asserted before the final flight and drew clear on the run-in to beat Hold The Aces (14/1) by seven lengths. Ballylibert (16/1) couldn’t go with the winner after two out and finished a further three quarters of a length back in third.
Jamsie Hall was formerly trained by Clare MacMahon, who is moving to England where she is soon to be married.
Condon said, “Bobby McNally looked after him in Clare MacMahon’s yard, and now he’s looking after him in Gordon’s.”
