On a night of firsts for numerous riders, owners and trainers at Cheltenham’s hunters’ chase meeting, none could match the achievement of Lauren Keen-Hawkins who won the £10,000 Ineos Grenadier Hunters’ Chase on Dandy Dan.

Keen-Hawkins, who works for Gloucestershire trainer Kim Bailey, had not ridden under rules before, her race-riding experience being limited to five point-to-point rides all on nine-year-old Dandy Dan. Keen-Hawkins timed her winning run to perfection, collaring leader Caryto Des Brosses at the final fence (main picture, far side) before winning by six and a half lengths
It was also a stunning first for Pontypool trainer James Bourne in his first season – Dandy Dan is the only horse he trains. He was joined at Cheltenham by various family members, including his brothers Daniel and Mark. Daniel enjoyed great success with his first pointer, Asockastar, and now holds a permit. The family intended heading home after racing, but following this famous win they hit the town and stayed overnight at the racecourse stables. Breakfast this morning was taken at services on the M4
