Friday 15th August HOVE Report

Winners

ON YOUR LONESOME was winning for the first time since March when holding on for a short head victory in the A8 at 11-37. The September 2010 son of Kinloch Brae was quick away and always led holding off the late challenge of the Paul Garland trained Senorita Anita. Owned by Mr J. A. Yelding On Your Lonesome clocked 30.95 (-30) 30.65 calculated when winning for the 15th time at Hove.

GRAIGUENOE ROYAL made it three wins from his last six runs when winning the A7 at 11-51. The December 2009 son of Royal Impact led near the line to beat the Derek Knight trained Questhouse Molly by 3/4 of a length! Owned by the Scarlet Pimpernel syndicate Graiguenoe Royal was sent off the 5/2 joint favourite and clocked 31.09 (-30) 30.79 when winning his 17th race at Hove. This was a 20th career win as the veteran has wins at Sittingbourne, Shelbourne Park and Longford on his c.v.  Kennel mate Sizzlers Magpie was unable to get involved in this heat after crowding and finished in 6th place clocking 31.50 (-30) 31.30 calculated just over five lengths behind the winner.

BALLYMAC DAINTY – 18 Wins (all at Hove)

Clocking her fastest time since winning back in March BALLYMAC DAINTY won the A6 at 12-08 for her owners Debbie Williams and Mick McCrory by a wide margin. The October 2010 daughter of Hometown Boy was always close up and led at the third bend to beat her kennel mate Avit On Beryl by four lengths! The 6/4 favourite Ballymac Dainty clocked 30.56 (-30) 30.26 calculated when winning for the 18th time at Hove! Avit On Beryl held every chance and clocked 30.88 (-30) 30.58 calculated in the runners up spot.

How Our Other Runners Fared

The Norah Mac Racing Club had three runners on the card but the luck was out as none could add to the Clubs tally of 98 wins! Horse Outside performed best when he was beaten two lengths in the A6 at 11-23. He was baulked and crowded at the first and third bends when clocking 31.21 (-30) 30.91 calculated in 5th place. The race was won by Steeple Rd Katie who is trained by Jason Heath.

Classy Molly was not disgraced in the A6 at 12-39 despite being baulked on the run-up and crowded at the first bend she clocked 30.98 (-30) 30.68 calculated in 6th place three and a half lengths behind the winner Swift Baker who is trained by Ken Tester. Kennel mate Coolscart Hawk ran a great race to finish 2nd beaten just a short head! The ‘Hawk’ ran on well to clock 30.71 (-30) 30.41 calculated!

Droopys Leonard had a rough passage in the A5 at 12-57 and surrendered the lead when he was crowded at the second bend and at 1/2 way! Sent off the 10/1 outsider he clocked 31.36 (-30) 31.06 calculated in 6th place just over eight lengths behind the Paul Garland trained winner Runaway Anna.

Our two runners in the A11 at 10-38 were both slow away and always behind as a result. Westmead Louisa was baulked on the run-in and clocked 31.70 (-30) 31.40 calculated in 4th place when beaten just over seven lengths by the Derek Knight trained winner Shine Maldini. Kennel mate Avit On Elsie was crowded at the first bend and was a further three lengths away in 6th place clocking 31.96 (-30) 31.66 calculated.

Granson Luca ran well in the A9 at 1-58 when finishing 3rd and was beaten only 3/4 of a length by the Claude Gardiner trained winner Shortsharpshock. Sent off the 5/2 co favourite he clocked 31.24 (-30) 30.94 calculated.
