Eddie Ahern brushed off a dangerous skid on the icy roads around Lingfield to arrive in time for victory in the betdaq.co.uk Conditions Stakes today.

Prolific winner Matsunosuke struck again as he gained a dramatic last-to-first triumph in the Listed Bet Multiples Betdaq Cleves Stakes at Lingfield.

EDDIE AHERN is rarely short of confidence but even he seemed surprised at the ease with which Clive Brittain’s Mastership (100-30) blitzed his rivals at Lingfield yesterday.
