'Hold-up horse' Dick Turpin delivers; WINDSOR.

Byline: Bruce Jackson 

JOHN MANLEY could have another useful horse on his hands after Dick Turpin showed his rivals a clean pair of heels in the 6f median auction maiden, to give trainer Richard Hannon yet another two-year-old winner at the track.

The Jersey-based owner has had a lean time since returning to the owning ranks after some useful successes.

Manley said: "My first horse was Kentucky Fair in 1973, and

I owned Thethingaboutitis, who finished third in the Gold Cup (1990).

"I packed up for a while, but I've had a couple with Paul Cole and now a couple with Richard," added Manley, who joked the name had been chosen as he was a "hold-up horse!" Richard Hughes maintained his position as Windsor's leading jockey with his 72nd winner in the last five years, increasing his backers' level stakes profit to over pounds 75 for a pound stake.

The Hannon juvenile brigade is heading for Royal Ascot next week but Dick Turpin will not be there. Richard Hannon jnr pointed the way to midsummer targets over 7f.

Hollow Green added to her win at the track last month, responding to Catherine Gannon's strong driving early in the straight to race clear and beat Urban Space more comfortably than the neck margin suggests..
