Townend wins aboard The Dew At Night

Thu 31st Dec 2009, 13:39

The Buy Your Punchestown Annual Membership for 2010 Handicap Chase saw a convincing winner in the Charles Byrnes trained The Dew At Night after he ran out a ten length winner in the hands of Paul Townend.

Townend was in front from the third fence and the pair were clear before the last and kept on gamely for an easy win over 7/4 favourite Whosaidso

Winning trainer Byrnes said afterwards: "He deserved that after Thurles. He jumps great, he's just a bit of a monkey at times."

"Hqe'll mix it over hurdles and fences with him. He can do anything he has the ability he just doesn't always show it."
