Sean Bowen completed his treble with a comfortable win for the Rebecca Curtis-trained Minella Bobo THERE was plenty of Pembrokeshire success as racing returned to Ffos Las Racecourse for the first time in a month. Jockey Sean Bowen rode a treble – and there were also doubles for trainers Peter Bowen and Rebecca Curtis. There were eight races in total, which surprisingly took place on good to soft ground, despite the deluge of rain in previous days. Sean Bowen took the opening novices’ hurdle over two miles and four furlongs with Equus Dancer, trained by his father Peter. The jockey followed up with a win on Lermoos Legend in the handicap chase over two miles, also for the Little Newcastle stable.
Pembrokeshire jockey Sean Bowen PEMBROKESHIRE jockey Sean Bowen came in for a surprise Grand National ride on Give Me A Copper in the 2021 Randox Grand National, after Harry Cobden was stood down after an earlier fall. It was Bowen’s sixth ride in the National, having already completed Aintree s showpiece race three times - with his best finish coming in 2015 when he took 11th position on Mon Parrain. Cobden was taken to hospital for scans on his head and neck after a crunching fall from Lucky One in the earlier Grade One Mersey Novice’s Hurdle, but he was able to walk to the ambulance.
