Sadler's Risk has the distinction of being Roger Brookhouse's first horse with an Irish-based trainer and on outing number four for Henry de Bromhead he struck in the Follow Us On Facebook Beginners Chase at Roscommon.

Never far away, the Sadler's Wells gelding led after three out under Andrew Lynch. He went clear 'on the bridle' from the next and stayed on strongly on the run-in for an un-extended eighteen length victory over the favourite Busty Brown

De Bromhead commented: "He was good and we're delighted with him. He jumped really well and looked to really enjoy himself. Hopefully that's his game.

"I think we'll leave him off now but we'll speak to Roger and see. We'll bring him back for the autumn then when there's plenty of nice races for him.

"There's the race in Tipperary there at the beginning of October but we'll see." (DM & EM)
