Boy bids for another success
Top golfer Laura Davies is just one of those hoping Jolly Boy can land a remarkable fifth straight win in less than three weeks when he contests the Sporting Index Novices’ Handicap Chase at Windsor tomorrow.
The Venetia Williams-trained gelding was a maiden until November 29, but got off the mark with a facile success at Hereford and has subsequently added victories at Fontwell, Huntingdon and at Plumpton on Monday.
Andy Clifton, managing director of owners Favourites Racing said: “It has been a fantastic few weeks for us and we’re very hopeful Jolly Boy can give us our 20th win of 2005 at Windsor.”
Davies is a member of the syndicate and added: “As someone who follows racing closely whenever I get the chance, I feel so lucky to be involved in a horse like this.
“I’m grateful to Favourites for giving me the chance to become a winning owner – especially as my other horse Kova Hall picked up a race on the Flat this year and is now going hurdling with Philip Hobbs!”
