A decent Wednesday saw Banned finish 2nd, the 9/2 shot was 9th at halfway improving entering the straight. She led from 2 out but was passed approaching the final furlong. She made no further impression allowing Make Us Proud to draw clear and win by 5 lengths. In the earlier contest Skip James finished 3rd, the 5/4 favourite was at the rear making headway from 2 out. He improved to 3rd but kept on at one pace in the final 100 yards, Elusive Tune won the race by 2 lengths.
There are seven races at Clonmel on Thursday with two standing out.
1.45: Jim Strang & Sons Kilsheelan Hurdle.
8: Ronald Pump: A useful chaser who was a below form ninth in the Kerry National at Listowel when last seen 78 days ago. He switches from chasing back to hurdles here on his debut for a new yard and is the class act in this field giving him the vote.
2.45: Next Meeting Thursday January 12th Novice Handicap Chase.
3: Happy Dreams: A promising horse who has two wins from four runs this season. He didn't need to improve to pick up the second of those victory’s at Naas 26 days ago. He has shown some good improvement lately and is the one to beat here as he looks to complete a late year hat-trick.
