Joe's gets his Turn under Meyler The Mark McNiff-trained Joe's Turn (10/1) just edged out It's Time Again in the Quills Menswear Handicap Chase for rider Donagh Meyler. The 10-year-old son of Jetaway travelled and jumped well throughout and tracked the John Ryan-trained Kilashee. Having hit the front on the run-in, the winner was pressed close home by It's Time Again, who had come from an impossible-looking position, and was all out to hold on by a short head. Joe's Turn drifted left towards the runner-up in the final strides, which resulted in a stewards' enquiry, but there was no contact made and no alteration to the placings. "He didn't get to run much this year as he was balloted out on occasions, and also his wind isn't great, so we pick and choose where to run," reported McNiff. "He is a heavy-ground horse but his wind doesn't carry him on it, so we duck and dive looking for reasonable going. "He likes a flat track, he jumps and stays all day. Donagh gave him a great ride. "I've lost two races through enquiries already this year, so hopefully this won't be the third!"
