THERE were a few Northern-bred winners in the period under review, starting at Cartmel last Friday week when the Dianne Sayer-trained Beeno won the concluding amateur riders’ handicap hurdle in the hands of Lilly Pinchin.

Despatched as the 9/4 favourite to record his fifth success, the 10-year-old Exit To Nowhere gelding was bred by Anne Kirkwood out of the unraced King’s Theatre mare Kay Theatre, a half-sister to the four-time winner Kinburn from the family of Miller Hill, Mighty Mogul, Line Ball, Court Leader, etc.
