THERE are a lot of point-to-point producers out there trying to emulate the success of owner Wilson Dennison and trainer Colin McKeever whose achievements have come about by buying proper National Hunt horses, training them to show of their best and then selling them into the right yards.

These are difficult enough tasks to match but it would be near impossible to better the record of Loughanmore graduates at Cheltenham on Wednesday. The meeting was attended by Wilson while Colin remained at home, looking after the present incumbents of the Co Antrim nursery and preparing to get the party started.
