Rachael Blackmore has just one winner remaining before losing her 5lb claim after Camlann gave herself and ‘Shark’ Hanlon a double at Down Royal today.
The 5/1 shot was produced to challenge two from home in the Bet With The Tote Handicap Hurdle and asserted going to the last.
Despite a slightly untidy jump at the final flight he had plenty in hand as he went on to record a two-and-three-quarter length victory over There You Go
Hanlon and Blackmore had also struck earlier with Honest Robber in the three-mile handicap chase.
Blackmore revealed that she has one more winner before her claim is reduced to 3lb:-
“It’s been a great day. It’s always a good day when you have a double. It’s great to get it and he did that well.
“I’ve one precious one left now!”
