P674 CEEFAX 1 674 Tue 08 Jul 19:30/31 NEWMARKET - GUNN BLASTS RIVALS 1/4 Peter Walwyn's Ben Gunn surged to victory in the H & K Commissions Handicap under Ray Cochrane. The five-year-old looked most unlikely to be involved in the finish as Suez Tornado struck for home over a furlong out, challenged by Kennemara Star. However Cochrane conjured a tremendous finish from the Faustus gelding on the final climb to the line and his mount got up to score by a head. Kennemara Star was deprived of the spoils on the line but held second. SHANTOU WINS PRINCESS OF WALES'S 662ASFURAH CLAIMS THE CHERRY HINTON 664Newm Rev3 Newm Rev1 Shantou 1 Asfurah 1
P674 CEEFAX 1 674 Tue 08 Jul 19:41/49 NEWMARKET - WALWZN DELIGHTED 2/4 Ben Gunn's last-gasp triumph in the H & K Commissions Handicap failed to surprise trainer Peter Walwyn. "It pays not to give up on anything in this game and that was absolute precision riding from Ray (Cochrane). "The horse has actually got a big head and it is a good job he has," he said. Walwyn has been an active participant in Thursday's countryside rally, a march which seeks to fight the anti- hunting bill: "We just want to be left alone to run our affairs," he added.

Danetime led on the wide outside with afurlong to run and powered clear to defeat Elnadim by two lengths.
