Re: Horse Racing
Jezki dazed by mighty Hurricane.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Mon
Quote:
Hurricane Fly once again brought the house down at his beloved Leopardstown after seeing off old foe Jezki to clinch a fourth victory in the Ryanair Hurdle.
Plenty felt Willie Mullins' incredible hurdler was destined for an honourable retirement after he was left trailing in Jezki's wake at Cheltenham and Punchestown last spring, but he has returned this term seemingly with a point to prove.

Parlour pounces in Challow.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Parlour Games was produced late to win the Betfred Goals Galore Challow Hurdle at Newbury.
The John Ferguson-trained six-year-old pounced on the run-in under King George VI Chase-winning rider Noel Fehily to land the Grade One spoils.
Held up in rear for most of the race, Parlour Games (6-1) led 100 yards out and gave his all to hold Vyta Du Roc by a neck.

Re: Horse Racing
Zig extends unbeaten run
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Thu
Quote:
Ptit Zig (evens favourite) took his unbeaten record over fences to four with a clear-cut success in the Grade Two BetBright Novices' Chase at Cheltenham.
Giving Paul Nicholls a double after Mon Parrain's success, Ptit Zig got upsides leader Champagne West at the final obstacle to pull away up the hill and win readily in the hands of Sam Twiston-Davies.

Ruby roars to victory.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...=&sub=&day=Fri
Quote:
Rock On Ruby (5-2) gave Noel Fehily and Harry Fry a 20-1 brace when recording his fourth course success in the Dorman Engineering Hurdle at Cheltenham.
The 2012 Champion Hurdle hero shared pace-setting duties with Cole Harden and had enough in the tank to see of f13-8 favourite Vaniteux by two and a half lengths.

Re: Horse Racing
Power Serge seals Tolworth.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Sun
Quote:
L'Ami Serge oozed class as he preserved his unbeaten record in Britain with an authoritative display in the 32Red Tolworth Hurdle at Sandown.
The 4-9 favourite served it up to market rival Jolly's Cracked It at the penultimate flight and quickly asserted under Barry Geraghty to quicken clear for a 14-length victory.

Re: Horse Racing
Fly leads Champion field.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...=&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Hurricane Fly has frightened away most of the opposition as only eight horses have been entered for the BHP Insurance Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown on January 25.
Willie Mullins's ace performer is set to attempt to make history as the first horse to win the race for a fifth time.

Argento on Coney agenda.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Thu
Quote:
Coneygree is set to step out of novice company for the Argento Chase at Cheltenham on January 24.
Trainer Mark Bradstock is keen to give the impressive Feltham winner some experience over fences at Prestbury Park before returning for a possible crack at the RSA Chase at the Festival in March.

Re: Horse Racing
Story shows his true colours.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...=&sub=&day=Fri
Quote:
The new association between James Doyle and Saeed bin Suroor got the 2015 Dubai Carnival off to a flyer as True Story put his career back on track with a runaway success in the Listed Singspiel Stakes at Meydan.
Godolphin supremo Sheikh Mohammed announced in early November he was radically shuffling his pack of riders, with Doyle coming in as number one for Bin Suroor and William Buick snapped up to ride principally for Charlie Appleby.

Re: Horse Racing
Tea camp dismiss World bid.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...=&sub=&day=Sun
Quote:
Part-owner Jane Williams has ruled out a tilt at the Ladbrokes World Hurdle for runaway Lanzarote Hurdle winner Tea For Two.
The six-year-old was joint-favourite for the competitive Kempton handicap following a Boxing Day victory at Towcester and made a mockery of an opening mark of 134 with a 16-length victory in the hands of the owner's daughter, Lizzie Kelly.
