Mon 17th Mar
Kennoway back in winning groove before hols
It was 7/1 bar in the concluding Frank Hannon Memorial Handicap Chase at Roscommon and it didn't get any better for backers of the 'fancied ones' on the National Hunt section of the card when Rockyaboya, the well-backed 6/4 favourite, unseated Patrick Mullins at the fourth last. A pound out of the handicap, Kennoway was the one to step forward and take his chance, prevailing in the extended two and a half miler under Robbie Colgan. Mon 20th May

Solstice Lives up to his Billing
Back In Front's brother, Solstice Knight justified all the notebook entries he received with his Leopardstown debut effort when taking the Mirror Group Maiden Hurdle to complete a double for Edward O'Grady and Andrew McNamara. They had earlier teamed up with Catch Me in the Boyne Hurdle. Mon 16th Feb

Great credit to the owners (Nelius Hayes and D Cox) and staff as he's a horse that's broken down a couple of times. The better ground made a difference. He didn't run too badly at Navan when he pulled up before the last behind a horse that finished fifth in the National (Panther Claw). I'm sure the owners would like to go to Punchestown and we'll see if he's sound after that.

The reason he is called Solstice Knight is because the two owners (Dermot Cox and Nelius Hayes) and the horse were all born on Solstice Day (21st of June). He is so different to his full-brother and he has the real cut of a chaser. He is entered at Cheltenham but I don't know if he'll go there. He had a bit of leg trouble as a four-year-old. (EM)
