Elliott on the double

Gordon Elliott continues to churn out the winners from his new base near Longwood with a double today. Elliott saw the Gigginstown House Stud-owned Bonisland win the maiden hurdle over two miles and six furlongs quite easily. Bonisland and Davy Russell got a good run up the inside rail and had over four lengths to spare at the post. Bonisland got a quote of 14/1 for the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at the 2013 Cheltenham Festival. Elliott completed the double when Silverlord won a 10-furlong handicap at Dundalk tonight.
