Thurles, under a light blanket of snow, passed Thursday morning’s inspection and it was a welcome sight to punters as it hosted a card which delivered on most counts.
There was a treble for rising star Darragh O’Keeffe, another winner for the Tiernan Power Roche-Philip Rothwell combination, and the feature, a novice hurdle, produced a thriller despite having just four runners.
