MOST Honourable has earned his place in racing’s record books. Having last month been Andrew McNamara’s last winner as a jockey at Tramore the ‘Shark’ Hanlon-trained five-year-old moved on to Clonmel on Thursday to give Rachael Blackmore her first success as a professional in the Woodrooff Handicap Hurdle.

The 11/2 chance was spotted by another Rachel, this time Hanlon’s partner Rachel O’Neill when offered for sale by Darley at Ascot’s Brightwells Sale in August and he was subsequently knocked down to Hanlon for just £600.
