2 for Hoban as Tribes And Banner wins again

Fri 27th Jan 2012, 21:48

Mutasareb s bid to win here for the fourth week in succession was thwarted by another course specialist as Tribes And Banner got there by a head in the finale, the Winter Racing At Dundalk Handicap. For successful jockey Conor Hoban this win made it a double on the night as he'd earlier scored on Mick Halford's Lord Kenmare

A near 16/1 brace was achieved for the Mayo rider as he brought the now four times course winner to challenge Mutasareb (in front a furlong out) inside the last. A winner twice over fences and over flights too, Tribes And Banner hit the front in the last strides as they left front-runner Confidence three and a half lengths back in third.

Charlie Swan trains Tribes And Banner for the Kill Be Canty Syndicate.

Hoban said: "I'm twenty one and that's my second double. I had one here before Christmas for Charlie (on Tribes And Banner and Maggie Neary on December 2nd)." (AM & EM)
