Review clonmel 16th Nov

< Alpha Des Obeaux led home a one-two-three for Gigginstown House Stud in the Clonmel Oil Chase.< Champagne West and Tiger Roll shared pacemaking duties in the Grade Two contest until Alpha Des Obeaux took it up at the final ditch, and A Toi Phil and Balko Des Flos followed him through.

Alpha Des Obeaux, who has never really shown his high-class hurdling form since tackling the bigger obstacles, was travelling well within himself and Mouse Morris' 7-1 chance pulled out plenty for Sean Flanagan to see off A Toi Phil by five and a half lengths.

The Gigginstown colours were carried to a facile success by the Gordon Elliott-trained Dinaria Des Obeaux in the Listed T.A. Morris Memorial Irish EBF Mares Chase.

Jack Kennedy went to the front before two out on the 4-6 favourite, who cleared the last couple of obstacles with the minimum of fuss and crossed the line 22 lengths ahead of Miss Eyecatcher

The Elliott/Kennedy combination also struck through Folsom Blue (10-1) in the Clonmel Oil Service Station Handicap Hurdle.

Having his first start since leaving Morris, the 10-year-old, who is better known for his exploits over fences, stayed on strongly to beat Westerner Point by a head.

A treble for the all-conquering trainer and jockey was completed by Hardline in the Prior Park Service Station Clonmel Hurdle.

The 1-3 favourite headed Flemenstar at the penultimate flight and strolled 12 lengths clear.

The Lisa O'Neill-ridden Warlike Intent (5-6 favourite) gave Elliott his fourth winner of the day and brought up his 100th winner of the campaign in the Clonmel Oil Slan Abhaile Flat Race.< Manger Et Trotter (7-1) had only shown glimpses of promise in a couple of two-mile affairs but improved for the extra half-mile to get the better of Chris's Dream by half a length in the I.N.H. Stallion Owners EBF Maiden Hurdle.< Poker Party (13-2) fought hard to repel Pat's Oscar in the Clonmel Oil Race Day Handicap Hurdle for Henry de Bromhead and Dylan Robinson.
