Fruity O'Rooney won his second steeplechase, his fourth career win in total, at Fontwell on 27th February with a typically gutsy performance. Our keen front runner is a great jumper and he relishes the soft conditions we have had of late. He battled bravely from the last to hold recent chase winner Sarando by a neck. What a great horse to own! 

Fruity O'Rooney won his first chase at Fontwell in October, since then he ran in a £150,000 hurdle at Haydock before finishing a brave second to decent horses in races at Fontwell, Warwick and Plumpton, so this second chase win was very much deserved! He has finished second to the likes of GRANDS CRUS and QUANTITVEEASING who both ran big races at the 2011 Cheltenham Festival so the form has stood up very well.

Owners in this thrilling partnership have plenty to look forward in years to come with races in France, Ireland and even the cross country fences at the Paddy Power Meeting and Cheltenham Festival all future targets as the horse matures into a handicap chaser. For now though, we will live on his latest win at Fontwell - pictures below.

As usual there was a good crowd of owners supporting loyal servant Fruity O'Rooney. What a horse he has been, we couldn't ask for more.

The perfect gift for newlyweds John and Debbie!

The wet weather didn't dampen our spirits!

Ears pricked all the way to the line
