Where's Bunny (5/1) registered a third career win at Clonmel today, landing the Clonmel (Mares) Handicap Hurdle for trainer Noel Dooly and jockey Richie Condon.
The seven year old daughter of Arakan had been in the prizemoney on eight of 10 runs this year and today followed up a Wexford handicap chase success in June, beating Bonne Debut by three lengths.
Tramore based Dooly said “she has been consistent all year, I gave her a break after she ran at Wexford and freshened her up. She had been running every second week and had been winning prizemoney every day so we kept running her. I think the little freshen up has done her the world of good.
“Today's 2m4f and the ground suit every day and once it's not soft she is always happy on it. The rain will probably come and end her season.
“I was a bit worried as she was the first one in the yard to lose her coat and had gone a bit hairy so I was wondering should I clip her. Obviously it made no difference - she must have been in a cold stable!”
