More for Moore team as Hurricane blows in
Seven races into the Betfair Tingle Creek Festival, Gary and Josh Moore saddled their fourth winner as Hurricane Pat sauntered to victory in the Listed Betfair Exchange Claremont Novices' Hurdle, the opening race on Saturday.
Sober Glory was sent off the 4/7 favourite to follow up his smooth Chepstow debut success over timber but jumping the second last it was clear he was beaten.
However in sharp contrast Caoilin Quinn had a double handful aboard the 7/2 winner who was soon in front on the stands’ side.
From there it was just a question of how far he’d win by and the answer at the line was five-and-a-half lengths, unextended, from Soldier Reeves.
The sponsors and Paddy Power gave Hurricane Pat a 25/1 quote for the Sky Bet Supreme.

It looked like a good race on paper, but I was confident as he did a very good piece of work last week with Macktoad who won here yesterday and that, for me, was enough to come here today as it made me think two miles could be for him.
“It is interesting that Caoilin said he liked the ground today as we thought he might want better ground.
“I said to Noel (Fehily) and David (Crosse) (of owner the Noel Fehily Racing Syndicate) when he came back in over the summer that he looked a proper horse. He was a nice horse last year but strengthened up a lot over the summer. His mind has grown up a lot as well, which is a big part of it as more trainable now.
“He’s won a Listed race now and we’ll play it by ear as to where he goes next as we wouldn’t want to over-race him. If the Tolworth was still here we might have run him in that but we’re not in a rush to run him again.”

Pritchard shines aboard Kikijo
Kikijo got the better of Turndlightsdowmlow as the 9/4 joint-favourites dominated the finish of the Pertemps Network Handicap Hurdle
The pair had the race between them from the second last and crucially the winner was slicker over both hurdles than his pursuer.
Despite a strong drive from Freddie Keighley, the runner-up could never get quite get on terms with Calum Pritchard aboard the winner who held on gamely to score by three-quarters-of-a-length.

Joe Tizzard is another trainer in great form at present and he too barely had a moment of concern as 11/8 favourite Sunset Marquesa landed the Betfair Supports Racing With Pride Mares' Handicap Hurdle.
She was in complete control from the penultimate flight of hurdles under Brendan Powell and was home and hosed following two more sound leaps.
She went on to score by six-and-a-half lengths from Shantwopointfive without being asked a serious question.
