The four-day August festival at Tramore drew to a close yesterday afternoon with a series of doubles, highlighted by the second victory at the meeting for Collen Beag, who was an impressive winner here on Friday night.

Egyptian Warrior can land an interesting little four-runner www.clonmelraces.ie Novice Hurdle at the Tipperary track this afternoon.

He was beaten 54 lengths on his latest appearance, but Willie Mullins’ Ashjar is still the nap choice to land the Directors’ Rated Novice Hurdle at Tramore tonight.
