Nedzer’s Return on course to win leading horse of the season award

The Gordon Elliot-trained Nedzer’s Return showed no ill-effects from his victory at Tattersalls Farm on Saturday by winning the open lightweight at yesterday’s Clonakilty point-to-point meeting, staged under the auspices of the Carbery Hunt on Inchydoney Island.

Nedzer’s Return on course to win leading horse of the season award

Nedzer’s Return (4/5) eased past the frontrunning Fahrisee with regular partner Annie Bowles on the run to the fourth last of the 15 obstacles. Whilst runner-up Klassy, a third-fence faller at Ballybunion the previous afternoon, refused to yield in the closing stages, he was still one and a half lengths adrift of the winning 11-year-old at the line.

Nedzer’s Return is now well on course to win the leading horse of the season award for he’s now positioned on the seven-winner mark. Norfolk native Ms Bowles meanwhile was bringing her tally for the campaign to 11 and she’s now four winners clear of Evanna McCutcheon in the lady riders’ championship.
