IT was a poignant moment when Carol Ross recorded her first success as a trainer at Tinahely last month, following the passing of her late husband Cecil with a horse bred by the pair and named after his favourite song. And so it was once again an emotional moment for Ross when she recorded her first double just three weeks later at the Ward Union Hunt meeting at Oldtown, which was initiated by that same horse which had provided her with her first winner, Goldmineinthesky, in the Devenish Nutrition winners’ of two.
