Trainer Stuart Crawford saddled the first two finishers in the opening 2m4f novice hurdle at Perth but not in the order that was expected as 80-1 rank outsider Nowinittowinit denied favourite Bleu D'enfer.
Ridden by amateur jockey Stephen Connor, the seven-year-old was well beaten in her four previous starts but produced a fine performance to deny her better-fancied stablemate, who was sent off the the 2-1 market leader, by a short head. Fellow rank outsider Bayonetta finished third at 100-1, while Crawford's other runner O'Hallorans Castle finished fourth. "The penny was starting to drop a bit and hopefully that's her now onwards and upwards," Connor told Racing TV. "I was fairly confident I had a good chance I could get there before the last. She kept rolling once she jumped the last. "Her last two runs in Ireland the heavy ground didn't help her. She's a big, raw mare who is starting to come to herself slowly but surely. Once she straightened up she just kept on rolling and got there in the end." It was a second career winner under rules in Britain for Connor, who mainly rides in point-to-points in Ireland, while it was also his first victory on his first ride at the Scottish track. |

Think u'll find Connor visited Perth a few weeks back for a trial ride - this wasn't quite as he described - was carefully planned [with or without Mr Fox being aware?]: interested in knowing where the money was down.
