Beverley provides a double for the ladies

23-09-2014

Many congratulations to both Joanna Mason and Serena Brotherton on their victories at Beverley today.  The first division of the Brian and Jason Merrington Memorial saw 16 year old trainer’s daughter Poppy Bridgwater enjoying her first ever ride on ENGAI and take up the lead from 3 furlongs out.  A dual then developed when she was headed a furlong from home by Joanna Mason and grandfather Mick Easterby trained TAMAYUZ MAGIC who stayed on well to score by a couple of lengths.  Replay http://tinyurl.com/o727lo5

The second division provided a different finish as BROCKFIELD trained by Mel Brittain and ridden by Serena Brotherton scorched home, leading from early in the race and again 3 furlongs out to be pushed out to win by 3 lengths.  The significance of this victory was that it saw champion Serena beat her own record of Flat wins in a season by taken this season’s tally to 10.  Many congratulations! Replay http://tinyurl.com/otzg7az htt
