Synod Inn Races

Jump Straight to Results

Synod Inn meeting is the first of the season’s Ceredigion meetings and is well established in the calendar having been going for 55 years. The Bank holiday provided ideal racing weather and the condition of the track was superb, which led to some scintillating racing.

After three consecutive wins, it was perhaps predictable that Zestthewayilikeit (Jones Evenjobb) would add to his tally in the first nursery race beating Black Mountain Rose (Gibbons Llanigon) and Jetts Boy (Hitchcock, Haverfordwest). In the second race the more experienced Cardigan Boy (Gale, Gorslas) came home ahead of Lakeview Meg (Atherton-Rees, Narberth) and Dan (Evans, Gorsgoch).

The first Novice heat continued the meteoric career of For One Night Only (Wilson, Llanfihangel ar arth) who relegated Purple Connection (Williams Llanwern) and Made in Wales (Evans Red Roses) to the minor places. Tyssul Opal (Atherton-Rees, Narberth) another impressive youngster claimed victory in the second Novice heat ahead of Beacons Sorcerer (Bevan Llanddewi) and Hyar Temptation (Thomas Tregroes).

In the first Grade B heat Too Hot Today (Jones Merthyr) lived up to her name to beat Brywins Jo Jo (Jones Ammanford) and Bon Hasty (Collingwood, Huntington). Precious Cargo (Gwatkin Evenjobb) was impressive in the second Grade B heat beating stable companions Greenhill Cliff (Williams Brecon) and Kickstart (Williams Brecon).

The first heat of the Grade A provided a predictable win for Meadowland Hasty (Price Brecon) with Dernol Duke (Wozencraft, Llangurig) putting in a steady performance to be second while Hilltop West Art (Davies Drefach) was third. Lakeside Pan (Elder New Quay) responded to local support to take the second heat of the Grade A from the celebrated Ithon Inmate (Price Brecon) while ever reliable No Mercy (Weigel Llanddewi Velfrey) was third.

In the first Baby Novice, Ceiron Overway (Williams Porthrhyd) romped home in front of second again Jake Lobell (White Porthcawl) with Hendre Yankee (Woolcock Ammanford) in third. Zestthewayilikeit progressed to the Baby Novice and won the second race convincingly for his young owner Oliver Jones from Evenjob, with Cardigan Boy (Gale, Gorslas) in second and George Gentle (Lewis Welshpool) third.

Although the Junior race had only two runners it was a most competitive race, Ellie Tromans from Newcastle Emlyn enjoying her first ride on Itshallover (Meaney Merthyr) took off quietly so that Anna Lewis on her grandmother’s Dragon Penlan (Barton, Clynderwen) soon caught up and went to the front. But the battle continued for the whole of the race, when after the last corner Itshallover swooped up the home straight to provide twelve year old Ellie with her first win.

In the ladies race Louisa Barton partnered her parents Makemeamillionayr (Weigel Llanddewi Velfrey) to claim first prize from Bridget Lewis on Tyssul Pearl (Barton Clynderwen) while Janet Thomas and Brywins Lucky Charm (Jones Brecon) was third.

In the consolation Louisa Barton was again the winning pilot when Ayr Ontario (Weigel Llanddewi Velfrey) came over the line in front of Sable Sam (Moorhouse, Llandinam while Runaway Girl (Jones, Llanllwni) was third.

The Novice final was another battle of the up and coming horses with last week’s winner For One Night Only driven by trainer Rhun Wilson for his parents from Llanfihangel ar arth showing his form is no flash in the pan, just getting his head in front, while Tyssul Opal (Atherton-Rees, Narberth) was a close second with Made in Wales (Evans Red Roses) was third. For One Night Only now progresses to open racing.

Habberley Haste (Lloyd New Radnor) driven by his trainer Andrew Hardwick claimed a good victory in the Grade B final ahead of Brywins Jo Jo (Jones Ammanford) while Greenhill Cliff partnered by his owner Dale Williams from Brecon was third.

The Grade A final provided an impressive run from Meadowland Hasty (Price Brecon) partnered by deputy driver Jacob Webb as they sped for home, despite the efforts of local favourite Lakeside Pan (Elder New Quay) while Ithon Inmate (Price Brecon) surged up the final straight to claim third.

So after a wonderful afternoon of racing the season continues with a meeting on the all weather track at Tairgwaith near Ammanford on Saturday May 30th 1.30pm start.
