Five Graded Race wins for Tattersalls Ireland graduates this weekend
Over the past number of weekends, Tattersalls Ireland graduates have prevailed at all of the major race meetings in Ireland and the UK with outstanding performances from THE NEW ONE, WAITING PATIENTLY, FINIAN'S OSCAR and DEATH DUTY and this weekend proved no different. Tattersalls Ireland graduates notched up wins in a Grade 1, three Grade 2 races and a Grade 3 contest.
Arkle victory for SOME PLAN
An eventful renewal of the Grade 1 Arkle Novice Chase at Leopardstown on Sunday saw SOME PLAN, a graduate of the Cheltenham January Sale and the November National Hunt Sale, who delivered a clean round of jumping to be the sole survivor of the race and win for Henry de Bromhead, Davy Russell and Roger Brookhouse.
SOME PLAN is twice a graduate of Tattersalls Ireland sales venues. Initially the son of Winged Love was sold at the 2008 November National Hunt Sale as a foal for €1,300 to Joe McGee by Orangehill Stud. After a promising debut Point to Point performance under the tutelage of Brian Hamilton, SOME PLAN was purchased by his owner Roger Brookhouse at the 2014 Cheltenham January Sale for £40,000 from Ballynoe Stables.
