YOUNG Lorcan was a convincing winner of the Mens Open race at the Ross Harriers point to point meeting at Garnons on Sunday as he cruised to a easy two lengths win over Watchyourback for jockey Gary Hanmer.
Owned by Nick Shutts and trained at Wolverly Penny Grainger this was a third Open race win for Young Lorcan.
There was a sting in the tail for connections though as it transpired that the winner may have carried the wrong weight and the Stewards at the meeting referred the case to the Jockey Club.
The Intermediate race for Novice riders saw another good performance from the six year old Ashgreen.
