Kingscombe Makes It Four.

Kingscombe completed a four timer today (1/4/2014) at Southwell.  Carrying top weight, under Robert Havlin, he took 4th position of the five runners, just behind the leaders, as the field set off up the straight for the first time.  He held this position down the back straight until two of the field fell away, leaving three to battle it out.  Coming off the bend into the final straight he was a length behind the second favourite who was 14 pounds better off than when they met last time.  The change in the weights made no difference, however, and Kingscombe kept on strongly up the straight to go on and win by 3 and three quarter lengths, with a further 20 lengths back to third.  So Linda's great form continues with this win making it 8 for the year so far.
