Reports in which Eric The Third (IRE) was mentioned
Dixie takes advantage of Vic's blunder
Pat Flynn made the lengthy journey from his County Waterford base and he was rewarded at Ballinrobe when the Mark Enright-ridden Dixie Highway justified favouritism in the Leisure Club @ Breaffy Handicap Hurdle. Mon 30th May
Review tramore 8th Oct
Give Her Bach (9-2) displayed great determination to defy top weight in the Waterford & Tramore Racecourse 2015 Special Recognition Award Handicap HurdleThu 08th Oct
Ring gets it tactically right on Eric
Eric The Third was always one of the runners up there forcing the issue in the Waterford & Tramore Supporters Club Handicap Hurdle, and those tactics from 5Ib claimer Andrew Ring took the 11/2 shot all the way to a three parts of a length win. Thu 08th Oct
Review kilbeggan 4th Sep
Ben Dalton's ice-cool ride on Star Power enabled them to cause a 33-1 upset in the richest race on Kilbeggan's card, the Martinstown Opportunity Handicap HurdleFri 04th Sep
Eric The Third loses maiden tag on 9th start
Up with the pace was probably the best place to be in a packing field for the Kilbeggan Races On Facebook Handicap Hurdle. Indeed eventual winner Eric The Third (9/1) was never far away in the hands of Andrew Ring, on his way to a one length success. Fri 04th Sep

We had a lot of seconds this summer, but we've had our few winners and we are having a good start to the season,. We had a long hard year last year but Carol Hogan and Eric Newnham are two very good supporters (Eric The Third's owners). Eric lives in London and that's why he's not here, and Carol was ill for the last few days but is back to work today trying to make up for lost time. He will keep going while the ground is good, but when it gets soft he'll get a holiday. Eric and Carol lost Lunch Master at Listowel so it's lovely that this lad won today.

Things went right for him today but I didn't know whether to go inside or outside the loose horse,. He did it well and hopefully can win another one. The ground is plenty quick enough for him.
