WINNER! Spanish Angel at Newcastle – 26th January 2023
Spanish finally got his head in front after a string of good efforts this winter. The race didn’t split the right way so Jimmy took the ride on a horse he’d won last time out on and it was an easy decision for us to book Billy Loughnane who is riding the crest of a way (three trebles in recent weeks!). Getting a nice tow into the race from the leader Spanish always looked to have the race won.. as long as he didn’t decide to down tools – which he didn’t!
“A good gallop but not many figured. SPANISH ANGEL got the perfect tow and broke a lengthy losing run under his in-form apprentice. Although things panned out nicely, he won with a fair bit in hand and could go in again in the near future.”
