What a beautiful winter's day we had for Sunday's jumps racing! It was an even split between local and visiting trainers, with plenty of brilliant racing action. π
Shane Jackson was the first of the locals with a win on the board, with Andy Win taking out the second over the hurdles. Symon Wilde's Bazini was impressive in the steeplechase, while Charlotte Graesser rounded out the day with Matthew Mark in the last.
