Well nothing could live with the relentless gallop of Denman in the Hennessy in one of the better weight carrying performances of recent years. That win will mean the end of handicaps for him so it will be interesting to see where Paul Nicholls goes with him next.

 

It was generally a good day for our horses to follow with wins for Helen’s Vision, Inglis Drever, Tazbar and Shrewd Investor with Sir Bathwick winning at 14/1 for the “dark horses.”  That was followed up with wins for One Gulp, Big Bucks and The Tother One on Sunday.

Today’s trivia

 

Martin Pipe won his first Champion NH trainer title in 1989 with 208 winners

 

What’s in a name?

 

Sister Act, who is trained by James Fanshawe is a full sister to multiple Group 1 winner Soviet Song, truly a hard act for any sister to follow!  Sister Act was of course the title of a 1992 film.
