TRAINER Jeannie Brown sent out Fryup Satellite to win the Catterick Race Club Amateur Riders' Handicap Hurdle yesterday.
She now regards Catterick as her lucky course because she also enjoyed her first training success with Mr Fudge at the same course in January.
Brown's five-year-old just lasted home by a head and the same from Duke of Perth and Fawley Flyer.
It was a good day for women, with Sue Smith and Ann Swinbank on target in the next two races.
Firstly Gems Lad, who had cut out much of the running, staged a brave fightback to pip Tico Gold in the Good Luck Paul Alster Novices' Chase. Then Swinbank's ex-Irish gelding Tirmizi opened his account in Britain with a clear cut victory over odds-on favourite Furietto in the Raffyard House Selling Hurdle.
Termizi, who continued by far Swinbank's best season yet - she is now on the 15 mark, equalling the total number of jumping winners she had managed in the previous four campaigns
Shock of the day was provided by 25 to 1 Tim Soldier, pulled up on his only two previous outings this term, who stormed home five-lengths ahead of 33 to 1 rank outsider Karenastino in the Boville Handicap Chase.
