Moudan makes all to follow up Moudan found plenty from the front to land back-to-back successes, at Clonmel this afternoon. The Ciaran Murphy-trained gelding had opened his account at Limerick late last month and went to post a 7/1 shot to follow up. Eoin Walsh bounced out to lead on the Mount Nelson gelding and he was tackled early in the straight by Krabat. With the two hurdles in the straight omitted, due to low lying sun, it was a long run for home but Moudan stuck on well to record a comprehensive four-and-a-quarter length win. "It is lovely to follow up and we said we'd wait for this race as he handles that ground,” said Murphy. “I wasn't enamoured with the two hurdles being taken out up the home straight, as jumping is his forte. He got it done though and while he got a lovely run around in front, company is good for him. "I don't know how much more is in the locker but he is improving away. There is a rated beginners' chase back here in a month and we have half-an-eye on that. "It is very good for the owner/breeder Pat McCormack who is a good supporter of mine and I'm delighted for him." (Quotes by Tom Weekes)
