Clerk of The Course Adam Wadlow and his team did an excellent job of watering prior to the meeting to produce good ground on the day, which was praised by most participants. This resulted in thirty-three horses contesting the six races, which provided some excellent contests.
The opening Goffs GB Pointing Young Horse Maiden was won in excellent fashion by Fred Philipson-Stow on the debutant Chasing Good Times, who led throughout and quickened clear from two out to beat Penarthur by five lengths, with three-quarters-of-a-length back to Son of Saratoga. The four-year-old Affinisea gelding was purchased at Tattersalls in Ireland last year for eighteen thousand euro and trainer Chris Barber said that the horse has taken a long time to get the hang of things and he was delighted how well he adapted to racing, having subsequently watched a video of the race. The trainer had runners at three meetings and was at Mollington on the day. With the potential £15,000 bonus available for winners of the series, the gelding should attract plenty of interest at the forthcoming Doncaster sale.
In the following Mixed Open, Philipston-Stow led on A Jet of Our Own but the horse cocked his jaw and missed the marker approaching the seventh fence and the jockey was unseated. Verity Trevanion took it up on her own Blairgowrie at the ninth and led until the last, but had no answer to the late run of Harry O’Dwyer on the favourite Premier Fantasy, who won well by two lengths. The winner was following up on his Mixed Open success at Eyton on Easter Monday.
Zak Baker made every yard of the running on Kauto No Risk in the Conditions Race (Level 1) confined to West Mercian horses. Jo Priest’s charge won by three-and-a-half lengths from Blagthebookies, supplementing his win in the Members at Bitterley last month.
The Restricted produced the closest race of the day. Huw Edwards set a good gallop on Artic Sting from the third fence and was collared by Henry Crow on the favourite Count Frollo at the second last. However, when the latter made a mistake at the last Artic Sting rallied, but Count Frollo kept on to win by a head. The six-year-old winner was repeating his Restricted success at the track on Easter Monday.
In the three-mile Maiden, Hugh Edward on Pip Pirrip led from the third fence and had built up a useful lead at the second last. However, his stride began to shorten and Dan Williams on Dark Soldier came with a strong run to lead after the last but that horse tried to pull itself up fifty yards from the line, which allowed Pip Pirrip to rally and win by three-quarters-of-a-length. The winning five-year-old gelding is trained by Fred Timmis and is home-bred by Stephen Davies, which he owns with his partner Charlotte Reade.
The concluding Conditions Race (Level 3) for Novice Riders was won in convincing fashion by Bruce Vaughan on Ringsend John who was six lengths clear from Big Bresil. The sixteen-year-old jockey who works at Christian Williams yard a few days a week was having his first success on his seventh ride. He acquired the horse from his uncle Tim Vaughan and it is now trained by Luke Price.
