JOCKEY Danny Tudhope and Newmarket trainer George Boughey took the honours on Easter Monday at Redcar by teaming up for a cracking double.<\/p>\n
The first leg came in The Celebrating 60 Years of Cleveland Mountain Rescue Handicap (Division One)<\/strong> when Kranjcar \u2013 named after former Croatian footballer Nico Kranjcar \u2013 outstayed Lady Of The Garr.<\/p>\n Tudhope reported: “He picked up well and will probably win again.”<\/p>\n The gelding is owned by the Pompey Ventures 10 syndicate, which includes members from Portsmouth \u2013 one of the international footballer’s former clubs.<\/p>\n Joe Hudson, spokesman for the syndicate, said: “We’re delighted. We’ve been waiting for the penny to drop, and he had a wind operation in February.”<\/p>\n The Tudhope-Boughey combination struck again with Cadarn in The Marske Fabrication & Engineering Handicap<\/strong>, with the jockey saying: “He broke a bit slow but settled well. This is his trip, and he felt a nice type.”<\/p>\n The football theme continued in The Flat Is Back On Racing TV<\/strong> when Cruyff Turn, trained at Malton by Tim Easterby and ridden by David Allan, won for the fourth time over course and distance.<\/p>\n \u201cHe loves it here,” said the trainer’s son, Thomas. “He ran really well here at the last meeting but bringing him back to seven furlongs was the key and he loved the ground. Hopefully, there’s another one in him.”<\/p>\n A football hat-trick was secured when the Hugo Palmer-trained Triple Double A \u2013 part-owned by Sir Alex Ferguson \u2013 won the second leg of The Marske Fabrication & Engineering Handicap<\/strong> under Jason Hart.<\/p>\n The gelding, owned by the legendary former Manchester United boss in partnership with Peter Done and Ged Mason, won cosily. However, there was a promising handicap debut by the runner-up, Homeland, trained in County Durham by Michael Dods, who finished strongly despite not having a clear run.<\/p>\n The eight-race card had begun with a highly impressive weight-carrying performance by French import Romieu in The Racingtv.Com Novice Stakes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The Lope de Vega gelding was having his first run for Adrian Keatley\u2019s Malton yard since crossing the Channel from Andre Fabre\u2019s stable and powered home from David O\u2019Meara\u2019s Obito.<\/p>\n “He must be pretty smart,” said winning jockey Sam James. “I’m very impressed, carrying that weight. Adrian has always been bullish about the horse and his options are open. He’s a nice prospect.”<\/p>\n It was Middleham\u2019s turn in The Celebrating 60 Years of Cleveland Mountain Rescue Handicap (Division Two)<\/strong> when Tickets, trained by Ben Haslam, stayed on well up the stand rail to overcome Simon Whitaker\u2019s Variety Island by three-quarters of a length.<\/p>\n Haslam said: “He’s probably better on the all-weather but he was lucky to get in on turf with a mark of 50, so this was a good opportunity. He’s still on a nice mark on turf, so we might have another go.”<\/p>\n Title-chasing Tom Marquand made the long trip north pay off when Lambourn raider Media Mogul, trained by Ed Walker, stayed on gamely under a strong ride in The Market Cross Jewellers Handicap<\/strong> over a mile and three quarters.<\/p>\n Marquand was quick to praise the Redcar stall-handlers for doing \u201ca great job\u201d when the favourite looked like refusing to start.<\/p>\n He added: “He has his own way of doing things, but he’s got more than a bit of ability to get the job done. He just needs a bit of persuasion, but he’ll gallop into next week.”<\/p>\n The meeting finished with a facile success for City of Strangers, trained by Ivan Furtado and ridden by Tom Eaves, in The Watch Race Replays At Racingtv.Com Handicap<\/strong>.<\/p>\n After the filly scooted home by five lengths from Tim Easterby\u2019s Perfidia, Furtado said: “She’s a progressive filly and we expected a big run,\u201d adding that she may try to defy a penalty at Ayr on Monday.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Danny Tudhope secures the double on board Cadarn at Redcar (Image: Tony Knapton) JOCKEY Danny Tudhope and Newmarket…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":39090,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4107],"tags":[22237,22242,20419,22241,22240,22239,22243,1071,6450,1883,79,22238,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-39089","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-racing","8":"tag-danny-tudhope","9":"tag-david-allan","10":"tag-easter-monday","11":"tag-george-boughey","12":"tag-kranjcar","13":"tag-nico-kranjcar","14":"tag-pompey-ventures","15":"tag-racing","16":"tag-redcar","17":"tag-sir-alex-ferguson","18":"tag-sports","19":"tag-tim-easterby","20":"tag-uk","21":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114377581149080492","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39089","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39089"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39089\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39090"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39089"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39089"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39089"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
