WINNER

REDSTAR POPPY – her 16th win at Hove!

On the eve of Remembrance Sunday REDSTAR POPPY was an aptly named winner at Hove last night! And from a generous donation by her owners the Royal British Legion will benefit from her success in the D2 Sprint at 6-44. Syndicate leader Jackie Thomas explains: “We decided that if ‘Poppy’ was to win her race we would donate 50% of her prize money to the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal”. Sent off the 4/5 favourite the February 14 daughter of Kinloch Brae showed good early pace and soon led! Keeping on well she beat her kennel mate Fanore Flyer by almost three lengths! Owned by The Ray Churchouse Syndicate ‘Redstar Poppy’ clocked 17.17 (-50) 16.67 calc. when winning her 16th race at Hove! FANORE FLYER was a 7/2 shot and making a quick start he raced handy! Finishing in 2nd place he clocked 17.39 (-50) 16.89 calc. when beaten just under three lengths by the winner.
