SECOND SUCCESS FOR MONJULES AT FONTWELL

Monjules gained his second success from three starts this season with a gutsy victory off a mark of 104 ridden by Lorcan Murtagh in a handicap hurdle over two and a quarter miles at Fontwell on Monday 6 February.

It didn’t look likely turning for home where he was flat out and he was still third jumping the last flight before staying on stoutly on the rising ground. Forced to switch half way up the run in he finished so strongly he was a length and three quarters ahead at the line.

It was good to see Monjules bounce back to form after a disappointing run last time at Huntingdon where he was never travelling. Monjules has done well since joining our team this season and we will look for another similar race for him once the handicapper has had his say.
