Russell conquers on Rome Leading Jockey Davy Russell completed a double for owners Gigginstown House Stud when steering Gates Of Rome to win the Tote Trifecta Rollover Beginners Chase at Naas today. The win moves Russell to the 89 winner mark, 18 winners clear of Ruby Walsh at the head of the Jockeys’ Championship Afterwards winning trainer Colm Murphy said “we’ll see where we go with him now but he has plenty of options - he has been disappointing until now. Davy gave him a super ride and he seems to have his confidence back. “We could find a little novice for Gates Of Rome now or there’s also a few handicaps we could look at and we’ll see what the handicapper does. He jumps fantastic but had a horrible fall at Gowran and it has taken until now to get his confidence back. I’m delighted with him and on his day, he isn’t a bad horse.”
