WBCRA Racing Results
On a wonderful sunny afternoon at the superbly landscaped all-weather track at Tairgwaith near Ammanford on Saturday, there was plenty of competition to provide a good afternoon of trotting racing.
Lakeview Meg (Atherton-Rees, Narberth and Cardigan Boy (Gale Gorslas) won the two nursery races to start the afternoon of racing off in fine style.
The first Novice heat gave Kiplyn (Williams Brecon) in his first season with Mid Wales a well deserved win from the talented Tyssul Opal (Atherton-Rees, Narberth) in second, followed by Chinatown Lucky (Williams Pencader) in third. Made in Wales (Evans Red Roses) enjoyed his best result this season, when he won the second Novice heat from the well respected Purple Connection (Williams Llanwern) while first time out C U Choteau (Thomas Llanbister) claimed third.
Blackfield Buddy (Barton Clynderwen) is quite rejuvenated since returning to the Grade B, this week he and co-pilot Bridget Lewis won from Makemeamillionayr (Weigel Llanddewi Velfrey) while Kickstart (Williams Brecon) was third. In the second Grade B heat Habberley Haste (Lloyd New Radnor) continued his winning form from in second place Camden Lock (Bartlett, Treharris) who has changed ownership over the winter, while The Bold Jack (Gething Gilwern) was third.
Despite his advancing years Terripan Hanover (Davies Dihewydd) proved he is still a force to be reckoned with, winning with his owner Aled Davies on board, in second was American Gigalo (Elder Blaencelyn) with the iconic grey Scoobys Dream (Moore Llangorse) another one who changed hands over the winter, running into third. Lakeside Pan (Elder New Quay) added another heat win to his tally, in the second Grade A heat coming home in front of Strike a Light for new owners the Meaney family from Merthyr and Hilltop West Art (Davies Drefach) who was third.
Despite a twenty yard handicap Cardigan Boy (Gale Gorslas) took the first Baby Novice race so qualifying for the Novice division. The esteemed Zestthewayilikeit (Jones Evenjobb) had to settle for second place this week, while Itshallover (Meaney Merthyr) ran well in third. Jake Lobell with owner Mark White from Porthcawl in the seat, claimed victory in the second Baby Novice to earn their graduation to the Novice, beating the little Fold Elite (Perks Presteigne) and Ceiron Overway (Williams Porthyrhyd).
In the Novice Final Kiplyn (Williams Brecon) repeated his heat win with trainer Andrew Hardwick at the controls while Chinatown Lucky (Williams Pencader) was second and Tyssul Opal (Atherton-Rees, Narbeth) was third.
The Dash was especially fast and furious as the little chestnut mare Too Hot Today belonging to ‘Gadger’ Jones from Merthyr and steered by Derek Pritchard swept over the line in front of Brywins Sweetheart (Marr Ammanford) while Goldness (Evans Llanwrtyd) having led for much of the race, held on for third.
The Grade B final was won by Kickstart (Williams Brecon) aided by trainer Andrew Hardwick from the improving Fold the Notes (Perks Presteigne) while the grey Camden Lock (Bartlett, Treharris) was third.
Terripan Hanover (Davies Dihewyd) has had many successful forays to the all-weather track at Tairgwaith, over his long racing career, and this week he proved he is not thinking of retirement, despite being thirteen years of age. He ran like the terrier that he is and it proved to be a double for the training stable as Hilltop West Art (Davies Drefach) claimed second, with the ever popular Scoobys Dream (Moore Llangorse) in third.
Next weekend racing continues with one of the traditional meetings, so renowned in Mid Wales, Kington and the Vale of Arrow races held at Evenjobb Court on Saturday June 6th starting at 1.30 pm.
