Chapter And Verse - A WINNER at Leicester

Chapter And Verse finally got another win on turf (his last was at Ripon in August 2009) at Leicester yesterday evening. He was given a good ride by jockey, Shane Kelly, who having spotted there was no pace in the race followed our instructions and sent the horse to the lead where he was able to control the race from the front. Chapter has won over 7f and so was able to wind things up down the straight and he was never in danger of being beaten. We were thrilled with his win as things had not gone right for him in a few races and this was a tremendous success for the horse who has been a good servant to the yard.
