Neville Parnham has enjoyed a fantastic birthday at Ascot with impressive victories by Fabulistic and Theodora, but in contrasting margins.
Fabulistic completed a winning double after an excellent swooping victory, poaching the win from Berkshire right on the line. After an excellent win over Who’s To Blame last start, Fabulistic continued his winning ways in the TABtouch-The Home Of Racing & Sport Handicap.
Positioned well back in the field, Fabulistic capitalised on the three wide line set up by Berkshire to win well, from the luckless Durrant representative.
Fabulistic won in 1.11.47 and by a half head, to record his fifth career victory.
Theodora has won with ease in the TABtouch Mobile App Handicap, over the 1800 metres to win by over three lengths, well held.
Racing rearward after drawing barrier two, star apprentice Lucy Warwick extracted the galloper back and around the field, to obliterate the opposition.
After a game defeat to Silver Plated last start, Neville Parnham stuck with Lucy Warwick and the decision paid dividends. Bolter Pollonize was incredibly tough on speed, running a gallant second from Klondike Lad who was caught three wide for the entirety.
Theodora won in 1.53.42 and by 3.25 lengths to win her second race from her 20th start.
