P2P.ie Review: Éclair des Sablons took the five and six-year-old geldings’ maiden at Tinahely having shown promise on a number of previous occasions. Colin Bowe’s charge was only just touched off on his penultimate start at Lisronagh and bounced right back to form here. The son of Noroit made every post a winning one under Barry O’Neill, before staying on gamely to win by a length and a half. The French-bred appeared to relish the nice ground conditions and looks like he is improving in the right direction. A €42,000 store this good looking sort should be able to build on this performance in the future.
