It was a fantastic day at our last meeting for the trainer and jockey combination of Bill Turner and Harry Kimber as they teamed up for a treble on the card, which also included the feature juvenile hurdle race. The newtonabbotracing.com Juvenile Hurdle was the third race of the afternoon and it saw Scrappy Jack make it back-to-back wins over course and distance. Having had one run on the Flat the three-year-old has taken well to hurdling with all three of his races over obstacles coming here at Newton Abbot. He had to carry a penalty for his win at the start of the month but it did not stop him from recording another victory, up against four of the same rivals who he had beaten on the previous occasion. Scrappy Jack confirmed the form with a half a length success, coming home strongly after the last to get up close home. Bill Turner and Harry Kimber had already gotten off the mark for the day in the opening NewtonAbbotRace On Twitter Maiden Hurdle as Oscars Fame

opened his account under Rules at the second attempt. The winning pointer had finished third over two 5 miles and five furlongs here on his stable debut and he built on that effort down in trip this time around. The seven-yearold took over the lead two hurdles from home and then he was not for catching, going on to win nicely by five and a half lengths in the end. The treble for Turner and Kimber was completed by Youvebrokenmydream in the fifth race on the card, the Follow @WillHillRacing On Twitter Novices’ Handicap Hurdle.
