ALL AGE BITCHES
The quality of this stake would not be bettered at Clonmel...........it was first class..........the final was between Kingsmill Bliss ....and Intervention. It was a great Buckle with Intervention just getting the better in the final stages.

The whole meeting was well run with excellent hares.............its been a credit to all clubs this year as to the quality of hares..........indeed its becoming rare to see a hare flecked so far this season.
DERBY TRIAL STAKE
Tory Hill Blonde
I think this was a first class trial stake........certainly the dogs in the quarter finals all looked of a good standard and deserving of a ticket. ..............a 64 dog affair .........it was never going to be easy but the winner was faultless................and a very popular win as well as it went to local syndicate....Tory Hill Syn............well done to Daniel Monk....Daniels Dad.....Paul Reid.....Christy Jacob and Andrew Delahunty
bred in the purple he is by Bexhill Eoin out of Hollyhill Blonde............the dam of last years Derby winner Kingsmill Dynamo............and when mated to Joannestown Cash produced Elwick Review....winner of the William Hill Gold Cup on the track.
OAKS TRIAL STAKE
There were some very well bred bitches on show in this stake..........some started out running very green but improved in leaps and bounds with the runs..... Like the Derby as the stake went on we ended up with some very handy bitch pups.
The field is very much like Powerstown Park so any winners here should enjoy Clonmel
Bridewell Dysart was always in control in the final and took the first turn by a length...........it was a well deserved victory as she was foot perfect in every round
Yet another winner for Ashmore View , who is making a excellent start to the season. Dyserts dam , Tequila Lady .........is a daughter of Tequila Rose.........yet another produce of the Safety Leader line......from the same branch as Oaks winner Bridies Best. She is owned, and bred by Micheal Quilter and trained by Lester Power.
LOCAL STAKES
The Walter Cahill Memorial is a 32 dog duffer............Congratulations here go to Ruari Dwan on the fine performance of homebred Borna Lauryn...a daughter of Boherduff Light x Killough Pearl..............who goes back to track Oaks winner Borna Best.
And Finaly...............
WORKING MEMBERS
How nice it was to see the Members Stake go to one of coursings hardest workers.......weve all seen Aoife at Clonmel running the hares up to safety............and she was on duty again for the three days. What some of you may not know is that the day before the meeting she took a hefty kick on the hip from a cow ......most of us would have watched the meeting on crutches! ............
So it was great to see Aoife and Martin Ryans bitch......Glenmorgan Lady take this stake for very deserving owners....................everyone involved with this lovely bitch was overjoyed.....well done
