Clodovil has double at Dundalk

18 Apr 2015

Firtsly, Ishebayorgrey mowed them down in the 6f handicap for Pat Martin. Following the race Pat Martin commented "This horse ran well on soft ground last week so I don't think ground is an issue. We'll look for six and seven furlong races. A mile might stretch him." Congratulations to breeder Trish Walsh.

Then, Denis Cullen’s Baby Dinnis came out on top in the mile handicap. Bred by Philip Gilligan, she came from mid-division, and Ross Coakley brought the three-year-old filly down the centre of the track as the field turned into the home straight.

She really started to motor from the two pole and picked up the lead a furlong and a half out. She forged on in the final furlong and was able to hold 7/4 favourite Vocal Warm Up on the rail by a length and three quarters.

 

"I'm delighted with her. We've always liked her," handler Denis said. “The step up to a mile helped. Things were just happening a bit quick over seven and she needed to learn how to race. At Gowran the last day she got caught up in the trouble at the start and she was a bit of an unknown quantity coming here. She did it well and is a nice filly. We'll look for something similar.”
