Seaside Punters Given The
Boot
Boot'N
Toot rocked punters at the seaside with a 100-1 success as
he denied a plunge on well-backed favourite Topkat in the
big race on Ladies' Day at Brighton.
A bumper summer holiday
crowd were treated to a thrilling finish for the
£30,000 totesport.com Brighton Challenge Cup as
Jean-Pierre Guillambert just persuaded the Charles
Cyzer-trained winner to hold off the final flourish of
Topkat by a short-head.
The winner had taken up
the running at the furlong-pole in a contest that saw few of
the field really get into the race.
And the daughter of Mtoto
stuck on gamely to hold the winner, who looked unlikely to
take a hand when ridden two furlongs out but picked up in
the closing stages to force a photograph.
"Fillies have a habit of
going in and out of form and this filly has not been running
particularly well," admitted Cyzer.
"But most of mine seem to
go off at silly prices and she definitely had form which
entitled her to have a chance today, particularly on decent
ground which we got.
"We also changed the
tactics because we have been trying to hold her up before
now. She was given a positive ride and that probably had
something to do with it too.
"We have been a bit out of
form and it is a relief to get off the cold trainers' table,
but hopefully we can have another winner or two
now."
Topkat's trainer David
Elsworth was magnanimous in defeat and did at least have the
consolation of saddling an earlier winner in the totesport
0800 221 221 Fillies' Handicap when 14-1 chance Blue Lullaby
scored under John Egan.
It was looking like being
a good day for the bookies until Intriguing Glimpse became
the first winning favourite of the afternoon when running
out a clear-cut victor in the toteexacta Brighton
Dash.
