Review clonmel 7th Sep
< Jettymarc could be in line for a quick return to the racecourse after his gutsy display at Clonmel.
The Tracey Collins-trained colt made all the running under Pat Shanahan to score by a length and three-quarters.
He could now report for duty at the Curragh on Sunday - or revert to the National Hunt game.
"I'm absolutely delighted with him," said Collins.
"He might turn out again at the Curragh on Sunday for a one-mile-six-furlong race or he could go to Listowel for a hurdle.
"Pat gave him a peach of a ride & ndash; top class."
By contrast to the victory of Jettymarc, Our Nana Rose came from a different parish to claim the Demense Handicap.
Settled in rear by the wise Danny Collins, the mare finished with a wet sail to readily account for Flashy Dancer.
Trainer Pat Martin reported: "It was nerve-wracking to watch.
I was worried she wouldn't handle the track as she likes to take her time.
"The chap on board gets on well with her and the secret is giving her a bit of daylight."< Blue Ridge Lane finally hit the target after a string of consistent efforts in the Rathronan Maiden.
Pat Smullen produced his mount wide to lead inside the final furlong and kept on well to score by three lengths from Buffers Alley
Smullen said: "He owed us one. I tried not to get into a battle - that's why I held him up and came wide."< Binocular also broke his duck when emerging victorious in the Derrinstown Stud Apprentice Claiming Race.
Pat Flynn's charge went for broke under two furlongs out and maintain a smooth gallop to repel Mutakarrim by three lengths.
Flynn said: "He's a nice little horse but he's very small.
"I thought this was a nice race for him today."
