- Vale Riders Isabel And Jack Earn Ludlow Racing Double
Isabel Williams and Jack Tudor, who both live in the Vale of Glamorgan, rode winners at Ludlow, writes Brian Lee.
Isabel, riding Burn Baby Byrne for her National Hunt trainer father Evan, scored a one-and-a-half
lengths win over Mabela in the Weatherbys TBA Mares’ Handicap Hurdle.
Jack was aboard the seven-year-old Hidden Charmer in the Heath Farm Magnus-Allcroft Memorial Open Hunters’ Chase.
He got his mount home by three parts of a length from Delegate, ridden by Ed Glassonbury.
