A double today brings up 40 winners for us this year.
Thu 13 Jul 2017
After four 2nd places in the last three days, today it was nice to get not one but TWO WINNERS and to bring up our 40th of the year. Tim and Tom, the syndicate managers both placed the two victors in races over extended trips and boy did it work.
VENTURA SECRET took on a mile for the first time and won virtually under hands and heels from Rachel Richardson at Carlisle for Tim Easterby. Watch the race replay here: http://www.thejockeyclub.co.uk/video/20170713/2699733/16173814
KASPERENKO was tried in blinkers for the first time and also stepped up 2f to 1m 4f and proceeded to win on the bit and by over 2 lengths under Tom Queally at Doncaster. David Lanigan and his owners (in the photo) were clearly thrilled. You can view his race replay here: http://www.attheraces.com/racecard/Doncaster/13-July-2017/1625. The son of Archipenko has a wealth of opportunities ahead of him for the rest of this season and having also won on the all-weather shows his versatility.
Well done to both sets of owners.
