Cottenham, Cambridgeshire

Fox Valley, a former Hillary Mcloughlin inmate who was last seen in Ireland in June 2018 when winning her maiden at Kinsale, started her 2019/20 campaign off well with a win at Cottenham in the restricted race for her handler Tom Ellis having improved from her second placed effort last term.

Former Irish point-to-point graduates enjoyed another success on the Cottenham card when Frank and Honest took the open maiden. Second at Loughrea in her five-year-old mares maiden for John Murphy back in May she was sold at the Tattersalls May sale and has made her debut performance in English point-to-points a winning one.

Dunsmore

The Jimmy Cole-trained Macca’s Stowaway found success in the 45&6 year-old open maiden. The daughter of Stowaway secured victory by six lengths to get off the mark having had no success when run multiple times last season in Ireland for handler John Walsh.

The next winner Iusetaluvheronce, registered his first UK point-to-point success when he scored in the open maiden for his trainer/owner Luke Price. The seven-year-old ran in a point-to-point in Athlacca back in 2016 for handler Patrick Neville before enjoying a spell running on the track where he was placed several times.
