Facile Vega 5-4 for Supreme in the wake of stunning leaping debut


Facile Vega kept up with his unbeaten record with a foot-ideal display on his enthusiastically expected to jump debut at Fairyhouse.


As a son of six-time Cheltenham Festival courageous woman Quevega, the Willie Mullins-prepared five-year-old conveyed all before him in the guard sphere last season - winning every one of his four starts including enormous horse race triumphs witnessed on Unifrance at the Dublin Racing Festival, the Cheltenham Festival and the Punchestown Festival.


He was unsurprisingly an exceptionally short cost to make a successful transition to the bouncing game in division two of the Fingal Ravens Raceday Lady Obstacle - and anybody enticed by the odds of 1-9 will have had not many concerns.


With Paul Townend taking over in the saddle from the coach's son, Patrick, Facile Vega voyaged supremely well and hopped precisely all through the two-mile contest, prior to starting to go through the gears swinging for home.


When given his head, the son of Stroll In The Park promptly broadened clear, passing the post with 14 lengths close by over A Mhi.


Mullins said: "I was extremely cheerful the way that he bounced for a horse first break and making his own running. He leaped like a handicapper and it was a fantastic presentation.


"I'm not sure what occurred at the third-last and Paul thought something just grabbed his attention. He just gave him a squeeze and he took off up the straight.


"We'll see the way he is after this and perhaps check Christmas out."


Jonbon simply sensational in Henry VIII triumph at Sandown


It was a case of marveling at the sure-footed way Jonbon went from A to B for the early piece of the race as 9-2 second-most loved Boothill was content to follow the Seven Barrows star as he explored the famous Rail line fences in course reading fashion.


Coleman was still to ask any questions arrival over the Lake Wall with two to hop and it was as of now Boothill was persuaded by Johnny Burke to close the hole to the front-running number one.


However, there was not really a snapshot of stress for the JP McManus-claimed gelding who put the competition to sleep with an exceptional jump at the last prior to advancing to the line to take his race 윈윈벳 record to seven from eight, and leaving Constitution Hill as the main horse to have brought down his colors.


The triumph strengthened his position as #1 for the Sporting Life Arkle Prize at the Cheltenham Festival in March, with Coral, Betfair and Paddy Power all making Jonbon the 7-4 market pioneer from 2-1.


Jonbon delivered an exquisite round of leaping to land the Close Brothers Henry VIII Novices' Chase in impressive fashion at Sandown.

The triumph gives Nicky Henderson's six-year-old a first Grade One success over fences to add to his top-table 맥스88 triumph over hurdles at Aintree last season and was the ideal method for expanding on a taking fencing debut at Warwick last month.


On that occasion, the full-sibling to Douvan put Monmiral to the sword with a display of jogging and hopping and it was a similar scenario here as Aidan Coleman bobbed out and made the running on the 2-11 #1.


Henderson said: "He has an exceptionally high cruising speed and can stimulate off it. Aidan shook the reins and off he's gone.


"I would have thought another would be enough before Cheltenham. There aren't numerous options, albeit the Kingmaker (at Warwick) is one that comes to mind.


"Routine is everything for this horse's psyche. That's the reason he goes off and does whatever he might want to do in the first part of the day.


"In his races he's so fast that he can direct and he's finished everything right so far.


"To go zooming round Sandown like that is difficult. I couldn't want anything more than to know how far he will stay."


McManus, who went to £570,000 to secure the services of Jonbon at the sales, added: "He has the size and scope, and makes it look so effortless. He's extremely invigorating."


Bromley gave 28-day boycott subsequent to mistaking winning post at Sandown


Ben Bromley got a 28-day boycott following a sensational finish to the Pertemps Organization Impediment Obstacle at Sandown.


The youthful rider was on board Nicky Henderson's Call Me Lord and was one of three engaged with a titanic tussle in the closing stages of the three-mile contest.


The 4-1 possibility edged his direction to the lead after two out and despite the fact that David Maxwell on inevitable victor Dolphin Square and Dan Skelton's Wilde About Oscar refused to disappear, the nine-year-old seemed, by all accounts, to be holding off his rivals.


Bromley and Call Me Lord held the benefit as the triplet passed the first of the two winning posts in activity at Sandown and the one used by the chase course. However, accepting his task was finished, the 7lb claimer stood up in his irons in the shadows of the triumphant post for the hurdles track, permitting Maxwell to steal a nose triumph on board the Philip Hobbs-prepared 18-1 shot Dolphin Square.


"He's the toughest little horse that consistently glanced through a harness," said the triumphant rider. "In the entire of the race the main stride he was in front was the last one.


"He's not over enormous, but rather he's down. I needed to be in behind and get a lead, and supposed in the event that I was on their positive momentum turning in, we would get an opportunity.


"I thought we'd been beaten a head and can't trust it that we've won. I will possibly accept it when they give me the champagne."


Call Me Lord was known as the sprinter up by the adjudicator following a close finish, with Wilde About Oscar a short-head further back at 20-1.


"It was a stupid mistake and it will not reoccur," said Bromley of his mistake, with the stewards giving the rider a boycott of 28 days for neglecting to take all reasonable and permissible measures to get the best possible putting on a horse that would have finished first.


To add further salt to the wounds of Bromley, he was also restricted a further four days for using his whip over the allowed level from having bounced the second-last... CHECK HERE
