Four faced the starter
here with Imps Way at the head of the market.
Atlantic Drift took them along at a good pace until hitting one fence too
many. In The Van then took up the running three from home, but Imps Way was
always going well and sealed his second win of the season at the last with
In The Van running on to take second place.
Cloudkicker was booted into the last by Andrew Pennock and fell. We all
feared the worse as the screen’s went up, but some minutes later Cloudkicker
got to his feet to cheers from the crowd, and a few boo’s for his jockey,
who was later fined £200 for not pulling up his mount when unfit to
carry on.

Confined
Mark Walford had
Golden Rivet handy for most of the race and came from
the last fence to take the race.
Dumadic (Nigel Tutty) ran well for 3rd place and should win soon, as
should 2nd placed Maitre De Musique.

Restricted
Clonshire Paddy, fourth
to Cross River at Witton Castle, showed a good turn of foot to
take this wide-open race, with Mandate Man taking second.
The runner up and Landford Lad should both take a race this year.
Eastern Royal also travelled well for a long way.

Mixed Open
Mr Mahdlo, a 33/1 winner
at the Sinnington earlier this season, took this one under a great ride
from Ben Woodhouse.
Always up at the front, he looked to have lost it three from home, but
a strong drive from Woodhouse got him back to the front at the last and
he went away from On The Mend.
We saw the best of Texas Ranger, who came home in third.
Both Mr Pendleberry and San Francisco appeared unsuited by the going and
were never in it after four from home.
Race 5
5 & 6-year-old Maiden Division One
Sevensider, second at Duncombe Park last time out, went one better this
time and should be scoring again soon.
Mark Walford got a run out of Another Half to take second place with
Vics fane, third.
