Race 2 - Brunswick Handicap - Sunday 30th July

Pillar To Post Sucess For Road To Love

The 3/1 joint-favourite Road To Love registered a pillar to post success in the Brunswick Handicap, defeating London Express by seven lengths in a 1-2 for trainer Mark Johnston. The mount of Richard Hills had seven lengths to spare over his stablemate, the other 3/1 joint-favourite, at the finish and was recording his second success of the season the right-handed track and an uphill finish suits him. The race panned out perfectly - he was not taken on early and the pace wasnt too fast. London Express has also run a good race. The trip seemed fine today although we had thought he might need further. More give in the ground would possibly suit him. Both horses will now head to Goodwood next week and have various options.
