11/11 JOE’s Daily Double

Conditions will be testing at Clonmel today, but I’ve two proper horses in mind for top honours.

By Niall Cronin

In the first, the 12.55 Handicap Hurdle, I fancy QUARTETTO, who is a course winner. He has won over today’s trip of two miles before and will relish the ground.

I’m also sweet on FOR BILL to land the Grade 3 event at 2.55, the Mares Chase.

This will be her first time over fences, however, she is a dual point-to-point winner so this task shouldn’t be a problem.

Davy Russell’s mount is a real classy sort and should do enough to see it through.

JOE’s Daily Double: Quartetto (Clonmel, 12.55 @ 4/1) and For Bill (Clonmel, 2.55 @ 9/4)

Prices from Boylesports at 10.30am on Thursday.
