Blackthorn handler Maurice Massey has moved up to second place in the race for the Trainers’ title following a superb eight winners at last weekend’s meetings.

But he still has plenty to do to catch up with leader Angie Kibble.

Massey has taken in two decent Irish recruits in Chapel Lane Lucy and Chapel Lane Molly to boost his challenge.

THE Gilly Hepden-trained You Know This headed the monthly Owners Association awards night after winning four races on the trot.

Others to step up to the podium were Right Speed (Hepden), Gangster McHugh (Bob Hannan), and Filedview Bonny (Nick Colton), who won three races in a row.
