WHILE there seems little chance of her rivals catching Gina Andrews while she sits on the 12-win mark as she nurses her broken collarbone, her nearest challenger, Immy Robinson, notched up her fifth victory of the campaign when landing the restricted at Friars Haugh on Sunday with Beggars Bush.

The eight-year-old Mahler gelding, who was bred by Martin Cullinane out of the Among Men mare Home For Good, is trained by the rider’s mother Caroline Robinson (nee Beasley) of Eliogarty fame. The pair had a long drive up from Shropshire for this Jedforest meeting, the first of the season in Scotland, but were rewarded for their efforts when the always-prominent Beggars Bush, who had unseated his rider in his two previous runs this season, won by five lengths.
