A fantastic end to a great week of racing in Yorkshire. The meeting had lots of challenging races with many close calls and photo finishes.
The first race offered a competitive finish between Hemmingway and Peach Pavlova in which Hemmingway won by a nose, this was a photo finish and one I wouldn't have liked to call. Hemmingway tracked the leaders then soon over took the rest of the field. The favourite Savannah's Dream, ridden by Daniel Tudhope finished third and was 1 1/2 lengths behind the leaders.
All the horses that went to the front, stayed at the front and most eventually went on to win. This is exactly what happened in the 3:25 with Save The Bees, ridden by the seven pound claimer Ger O' Neill, he eventually went on to win by 1 1/2 lengths, congratulations to owner Steve Ryan and trainer Declan Carroll. This was Save The Bees' tenth win.
It was a family day, there was a fair, bouncy castle and face paint. Also from New Beginnings a charity which rehomes horses, 2 inside out horses with painted on skeletons and internal organs that were brightly coloured and fun for kids to look at.
Next update is the meeting at Beverley on the 26th of July. In the near future there will be interviews with up and coming jockeys such as Phil Dennis.
This is blog's about racing meeting's I go to and any horses or jockey performances that catch my eye.
