Plenty of Local Cheer at Listowel

Wed 17th Sep 2008, 18:20

Tom Copper's Just Naturally kept the locals happy as he took a grief stricken beginners chase under Denis O'Regan.

Blinkers meanwhile have worked the oracle on Jamies Choice and he made it four wins on the bounce since being equipped with the headgear for Philip Rothwell in the Seamus Mulvaney Handicap Chase.

Eoin McCarthy from nearby Athea, Co. Limerick has been aboard the Flemensfirth gelding for all these successes and as this was his fifteenth winner he now loses the right to claim seven pounds.

Paddy Kennedy from Dingle rode his second winner on Western Charmer for Dessie Hughes in the two and a half mile bumper.

Hughes said of this fellow: "He is a smashing horse and he goes on that ground. I told Paddy to hold him up until the last possible moment and we will probably look at going for another bumper."
