Pin scores in style for Martin

Mon 5th Apr 2010, 15:08

Davy Russell produced Hold The Pin with a well-timed run to take the Irish Field - Best For Racing Handicap Hurdle in great style at Fairyhouse.

The Tony Martin-trained gelding hit the front between the last two flights and soon had matters in hand.

He kept on strongly to post a cosy three-length success over Bideford Legend

"He just missed out getting into the National and is an unlucky horse," said Martin.

"He's always been very unlucky and has only won a couple of hurdles and one chase.

"The boys have stuck with him though and it's great that he won today. He could go to Punchestown for something if the ground remains similar."
