A very large and enthusiastic Easter Monday crowd saw exciting racing at this popular Cornish track
The highlights were a first treble for jockey Jake Bament, a first winner for Amy Bennalick, plus Josh Newman reaching his century of winners.
Five-year-old mare Walkin Out followed up her recent course win with another exhilarating performance to set up a treble for Jake Bament in the Sportsmans Arms sponsored Members’ race. Leading from start to finish and jumping quickly and accurately to win in the fastest time of the day, the result was never in doubt. “She will keep running for the rest of the season and may go for a mares race at the Berkeley next weekend”, said Lisa Jefford, wife of trainer Leslie.
The 24-year-old jockey went on to steer Eric The Third to a six lengths success in the Chris and Sarita Perkins Conditions event. John Heard handles this useful veteran pointer near Okehampton for a small syndicate and described him as “A real trier but a bit one paced and likes firm ground.”
Looking For Larry gave Bament his treble when just overhauling Ask The Lady to win the Mitchell and Webber Restricted. “He was very green and will come on for the run,” reported the jockey. Owner Jill Dennis described her four-year-old as a “big baby we bred from our pointer Tavira. The vet said she was not in foal and she went to be covered in Ireland, but over there she produced the foal by Telescope we called Looking For Larry. She is now in foal to Sixties Icon. Looking For Larry will go to the sales.”
It was almost a four-timer for Bament in the Kivells Maiden as his mount Summerleaze was left in the lead after the last. At this juncture Mykonos Ammos, who had just taken the lead, swerved and lost his rider Fionn Summers as he appeared to dart for the exit gate. The tiring Summerleaze was then headed close home by 14-1 outsider Little Peachey who went on to give 23-year-old Amy Bennalick her first winner. Amy, from Callington, rides out for the winner’s owner/trainer Jackie du Plessis.
Josh Newman reached his century of pointing winners on Between You and Me in the Truro Tractors Maiden for four and five-year-olds. Neil Mclean trains the sturdy Presenting gelding, bought at Goffs Doncaster sales last May, on behalf of John and Floss Symes. The gelding swept past Kesa Great approaching the last and looks sure to improve further. “He had lost his action when disappointing at the undulating Cotley course last time and was much happier on this flatter track,” explained connections.
Oistrakh Le Noir was an impressive winner of the David & Gail Ellis sponsored Ladies’ Open, drawing well clear of front running Bingo D’Olivate in the home straight. A former hurdles winner who had scored on his pointing debut at Ffos Las last November, the eight-year-old is trained by Ed Partridge, and was led up by his wife better known as Lizzie Kelly. “He might be the type for next year’s Aintree Foxhunters,” remarked the trainer. On this performance he would not be out of place in that company. Jockey Kate Gowing, 24, gave her mount a very confident ride to gain her 16th career victory and said. “He had the hood back on and we changed tactics. He made the running at Milborne last time (fell at the last) and settled better in behind today.”
Footloose has been a most progressive pointer this season and won for the fifth time, leading from three out to win to beat River Myth in the Trebudannon Manor Cornish National Men’s Open. Arron Butterfield, based with Colin Tizzard, has been in the saddle each time. Arron’s father Alex confirmed that Footloose will be turned out now for the summer.
