< Tongie ran out a really gutsy winner of Limerick's Money Back On Cheltenham Fallers At Coral.ie Rated Novice Hurdle.
David Mullins led on the Pat Fahy-trained 5-4 favourite, but had been headed by Ice Cool when that one crashed out at the second-last.
Dangers still abounded in the shapes of The Mulcare Rover and Prince Kup but Tongie stuck his neck out gamely and scored by three-quarters of a length.< Miss Me Now had to work hard to get into a challenging position in the Best Price Guaranteed On All Irish Racing At Coral.ie Mares Maiden Hurdle but ultimately ran out a cosy winner.
Willie Mullins' 2-1 favourite improved on to the heels of the leaders approaching two out, only to make a mistake, but she was big and bold at the last and strode eight lengths away from West Bridge < Double Scores Clonmel second was the best form on offer in the Mullins Magic Free Bet Offer At Coral.ie (C & G) Maiden Hurdle by far, which is why he dominated the market at 4-9.
Bryan Cooper made his own running on Gordon Elliott's charge and while he wasn't foot-perfect at every obstacle, he possessed too much quality and sauntered 12 lengths clear of Kilcrea Bridge
Three runs after a lengthy absence have brought Stolberg to the boil, and he proved as much in the 8-1 Willie Mullins To Train A Cheltenham Winner At Coral.ie Handicap Hurdle.
The 11-2 joint favourite took up the running on the turn for home and kept Black Ice five lengths at bay in the hands of Jonathan Moore.< Hes Our Vinnie (7-1) broke his duck under Rules in the Bet Now On Every Cheltenham Race At Coral.ie Handicap Hurdle, while Nina Carberry took the Cheltenham Crazy Prices At Coral.ie (Pro/Am) Flat Race on The Sneaky Punter (7-2).< Articulum was sent off the 11-8 favourite for the Bet & Watch Irish And UK Racing Live At Coral.ie (Pro/Am) Flat Race and his supporters never had a moment's worry as he coasted to victory.
