Copper falls is first for Turner

HAYLEY Turner returns to the saddle tomorrow with three rides at Kempton.

Turner has been out of action with a broken ankle since August but earlier in the summer she had ridden both Dream Ahead and Margot Did to Group One victories, the latter in the Nunthorpe Stakes at York’s Ebor festival.

Her first ride back is on Brendan Powell’s Copper Falls. She then rides two for Conor Dore – Opus Maximus and then Lucky Art.

“Conor is very close to reaching his target of 30 winners in a calendar year, a massive achievement from a chap who has little over 10 horses in training,” she said. “I love riding for him, he really knows his stuff.”

Rev It Up could be seen in action next in the Albert Bartlett River Don Novices’ Hurdle at Doncaster on January 28.

Tim Vaughan’s youngster met with his first defeat at Cheltenham recently, but went down fighting behind Deireadh Re.

Vaughan feels he needs a trip to be seen at his best but, more importantly, he needs a good cut in the ground.
