FOUR local trainers saddled winners recently with Noel Kelly doing so at Downpatrick last Friday afternoon and again at Listowel on Wednesday. In both instances, amateur Orán McGill was the successful rider.

First up, Victor McCrea’s High Court Cave justified odds-on favouritism in Downpatrick’s opening Randox Maiden Hurdle over two and a quarter miles. In seven lifetime starts, the five-year-old Court Cave gelding has won a point-to-point maiden, a bumper and now a hurdle race.
