Kyoto finally gets to the Summit

Sat 6th Nov 2010, 13:55

Maura McGuinness and Adrian Heskin caused a surprise at Gowran early last month when Ragtime Lucy prevailed at odds of 16/1 and the pair repeated the dose in the Tayto Group Handicap Hurdle when Kyoto Summit obliged at 14s (from 20s on track, 25s in the morning) at Down Royal.

Another British-bred like Monastrell in the first, Kyoto Summit may have been four and a half years trying to add to a sole success achieved in a Nottingham ten furlong maiden (then under the care of Luca Cumani in April 2006) but when the victory finally arrived it came stylishly.

The chestnut son of Lomitas led three out, he was ridden clear approaching the next and he kept on strongly to account for Ferry Point

McGuinness, based outside Kells in County Meath, said of her mother Elizabeth's seven-year-old: "That was his first time over two and a half miles on that ground so it was a surprise to me. I knew he was very well at home though and if comes out of this okay he'll run at Dundalk next Friday."
