REVIEW |
Ken
and John Heard’s Bill Me Up won the national Chase Young Horse Award
after a win in the South Tetcott Intermediate at Lifton on Monday. Colin
Heard rode the horse to victory and the owners win £1,000 and a trophy
worth £300 which will be presented at Stratford Racecourse on Friday. Mrs
Be won the Men’s Open at Lifton under Alex Charles Jones and the victory
gave the Ollie Bush-trained horse the Wessex Area Chase Young Horse Award
title. Phoenix
Phlyer was back to form and won the ladies race for Charlotte Stucley. One
to look out for here is third placed Guru Rinpoche who at last got the
rewards for owner Paul Tylor’s confidence. Mark
Shears won the last two races, the maidens on board Rich Return at 50-1
- and Liberty Livelihood and there was another long priced winner Mandy
Hand on 25-1 shot Silver Man in the Restricted. County
