Clonmel Race 2 - Connolly's Red Mills Irish Ebf Auction & Median Mdn Hurdle
ROKANAKO (7) recorded a good 2.5L third attempting a 3419m jumpers flat race at Down Royal six days ago. Looks capable of going one better revisiting hurdling. S T HAMO (8) raced from off the pace finishing 47L third over 3419m at Down Royal. Warrants thought as expected to play a role. Highland Reel filly HIGHLAND CALL (12) gets a chance to produce a big effort following a 19L sixth contesting a 3218m maiden hurdle at Punchestown. PROS AND CONS (6) completed a point-to-point double securing a 0.75L victory trying 4828m at Ballindenisk in early May. One to note making his first hurdle appearance.

Resuming from a lengthy break. Only had one start last when he was finished 14th of 18 runners at Punchestown on April 28 over 3319m, 33 len behind Delamotte carrying 71kg at $67. Better for the experience but others have better credentials.

Freshened for 42 days. Last run finished eighth of 14 runners at Listowel on September 24 over 3218m, 34 len behind Tell The Boys with 70kg at $51. Start before finished seventh of 15 starters at Ballinrobe on September 11 over 3621m, 16 len behind The Dotski carrying 67kg at $29. Could prove harder to beat this time.
