Going reports and early non runners

The going at Tramore for this evening's seven race National Hunt card is described as good, good to firm in places. Action gets under way at 5.25pm. The five-runner Noel Cummins Bookmakers Hurdle at 5.55pm looks an intriguing contest with Tawaagg, Brave Beauty and Takeyourcapoff closely matched in the betting. Tramore also races tomorrow at 5.10pm. Thu 11th Aug

A day to remember for the Cullys

Amateur rider Chris Cully had a day to remember at Downpatrick when half-an-hour after his success on Kanesh, he was on the mark again in the concluding Crossgar Irish National Hunt Flat Race, this time on his father Tom's Nutin Fancy. Nutin Fancy is trained by Gordon Elliott who was completing his own brace following the earlier win of Brave Beauty – giving himself plenty of reasons to be cheerful on the occasion of his 33rd birthday. Wed 02nd Mar

Beauty very very good at Downpatrick

One is reminded of the nursery rhyme - There was a little girl who had a little curl - when it comes to Sean Gallagher and Gordon Elliott's (33 today) mare Brave Beauty and the daughter of Accordion had one of her very very good days today when sluicing up in the Audrey Woods Memorial European Breeders Fund Mares Novice Hurdle at Downpatrick. Wed 02nd Mar

Elliott makes a Beauty out of Brave

After race at Downpatrick Wed, 2nd Mar, 2011 (1st)

I'd say she's a bit of a madam. In fairness the ground was a bit better and that probably helped. She may go to England in a few weeks time for something. It's great for Sean who is one of my best supporters.
