Alpha Male shows them who's boss

Honeysuckle's handler wins northern hunter
Honeysuckle's point-to-point handler Jerry Cosgrave was amongst the winners at Downpatrick as his aptly-named Big Leg Up landed the Boardsmill Sires Maiden Hunters Chase under jockey Simon Cavanagh. Sun 21st Mar
After race at Downpatrick Sun, 21st Mar, 2021 (1st) 
he wouldn't be the fastest in the world but he's massive, stays and gallops. He just laid back off it and they went too fast. He dropped him well because there was no point in going after it. He has scope to burn and he is a serious horse to jump. I did expect a good run today. We had hobdayed him and he won his point-to-point and then it started to catch him again and we did a tie-back on him this time and it was a success. He has been working brilliantly and I expected him to be in the first three. He can handle that good ground and we'll maybe go for another one now.
