“Glenvale Rosie” Saves Kennel Blushes!
“ROSIE” SHOWS HER KENNEL MATES HOW IT’S DONE!
Things were not working out too well for our kennel runners at Hove today. Ballymac Benefit, Droopys Brody and Watch Matt had all finished last in their races while Droopys Margaret only went one place better when finishing 5th in her race! Then along came Glenvale Rosie to save the day and send the kennel home with a winner!
GLENVALE ROSIE – Our Winner Today!
Sunday 8th June HOVE Report
Winner
GLENVALE ROSIE certainly pays her way! She has won at least one race every month this year and continued that record when winning the A10 at 12-12 today. The April 2011 daughter of Bexhill Eoin was sent off the 7/4 favourite and railing well she led from 1/2 way beating the Seamus Cahill trained Guinness Storm by 3/4 of a length! Owned by the Rosie Syndicate ‘Rosie’ clocked 31.08 (-10) 30.98 calculated when recording her 11th career win which have all come at Hove.
How Our Other Runners Fared
Ballymac Benefit was beaten a neck in A6 grade last week but she couldn’t produce that form in the A6 at 11-11 today. Slow away she was baulked at the first bend and clocked 31.48 (-10) 31.38 calculated in 6th place twelve lengths behind the Paul Garland trained winner Key Point.
Droopys Brody was 6th in the A5 at 11-28 beaten six and a half lengths by the Ken Tester trained winner Ballymac Cai. ‘Brody’ railed but checked at the 3rd bend clocking 31.09 (-10) 30.99 calculated.
Also finishing in 6th place today was Watch Matt who clocked 31.34 (-10) 31.24 calculated when beaten eight lengths in the A4 at 11-57. Watch Matt missed his break and was crowded at the first and third bends behind the winner Dubai Fantasy who is trained by Ken Tester.
Droopys Margaret took a battering in the A4 at 11-57. She was crowded at the first bend, the 1/4 mark and again on the run in. For good measure she was also bumped at the third bend! She finished 5th clocking 31.00 (-10) 30.90 calculated just under six lengths behind the Derek Knight trained winner Maireads Secure.
