Elliott brings up Fairyhouse double for syndicate of friends Gordon Elliott doubled his score when Jaunty Thor (11/4 favourite) landed the Fairyhouse Racecourse Ladies Handicap Chase under Lisa O'Neill. Earlier on the mark with the Gigginstown House Stud-owned and Davy Russell-ridden Monbeg Worldwide, here Elliott hit the mark for workers and supporters at Cullentra House Stables — the Call It What You Like Syndicate. The left jumping The Ballyboys got rid of Sarah Kavanagh at the last when still in with every chance and Jaunty Thor idled on the run-in. He eventually got home by a length and a half and the same from Danali and Night Sir. There was only a length and a quarter then to Redwood Boy in fourth. "He's actually unlucky that he hasn't won five for us since we got him as he was just narrowly beaten twice," said Elliott. "My head man Simon (McGonagle) is involved in him and friends of his and mine from Kilmessan and all over Ireland. "They've had horses with us for years and it's a good fun syndicate. "I might try and find a small selling hurdle or something for him in England. He mightn't be a horse for real winter ground. "They've had great craic out of him, he's won three races now." O'Neill added:- "It's fantastic for the lads. They are very good to let me on board and Gordon is very good to give me the opportunity. It's a good day all around. "He's done really well since he's joined the yard and hopefully it's onwards and upwards with him. "We went a nice gallop and he took me there nicely. He thought he had enough done when he landed over the back of the last but we got there at the right time." (GC & EM)
