LOCHYS BLUE BOY OPENS HIS HOVE ACCOUNT!                                                           AS BALLYMAC  DAINTY WINS AT HOVE FOR THE 17th TIME! 

Saturday 22nd March Hove Report

Winners

LOCHYS BLUE BOY got off the mark at Hove at the third attempt when he took the D1 sprint at 9-41 in eye catching fashion! The Dec 2011 son of Local Honcho was quick away and always led to beat kennel mate Pennys Peewee by 3/4 of a length clocking a decent 16.47 (-5) 16.42 calculated. Owned by the Sevenmenandadog syndicate Lochys Blue Boy was sent off the 2/1 favourite and was winning for the third time in his career. He has wins at Dundalk and Lifford on his Irish card and judged on this result he will win many more round Hove! Pennys Peewee is a useful sprinter and has six wins at Hove over this distance. She ran well to finish second after holding every chance. She clocked 16.54 (-5) 16.49 calculated in the runners up spot.

As Lochys Blue Boy was getting off the mark at Hove BALLYMAC DAINTY was winning at this venue for the 17th time! She won the A4 at 9-24 in some style clocking a fast 30.30 (-10) 30.20 calculated when beating the Claude Gardiner trained Pocket Jacks by over two lengths! The Oct 2010 daughter of Hometown Boy Nga owned by Debbie Williams and Mick McCrory was quick away and always led. She obviously loves this track as all her wins have come at Hove!

How Our Other Runners Fared

Sizzlers Beauty was making her debut and Mikeys Guest was returning from injury in the A5 at 10-13. Although both had gone well in their trials race conditions are a different thing! Mikeys Guest showed early pace but was baulked at the fourth bend and clocked 30.88 (-10) 30.78 in 5th place beaten 3 lengths by the Seamus Cahill trained winner Guinness Champ. Sizzlers Beauty was quick away and led to the third bend but was baulked at the 3/4 mark and finished a further length behind her kennel mate clocking 30.94 (-10) 30.84 calculated in 6th place.

Classy Molly andPrincess Jetta ran better races than of late when they occupied second and third places in the A7 at 10-30.
