It was a Fred Rees day at the opening of the Lingfield steeplechase meeting in England recently, the star English jockey accounting for half the card. He started off by riding to victory Mask Man in the Cowden selling steeplechase.
Rees' second success was gained in the Southern handicap steeplechase, in which he rode Major G. Larnach Nevill's Ibstock to victory over Mrs. S. Prince's Mullaghmast by eight lengths. The third of Rees' winners was Greenhorn, which did not have much trouble in justifying his favoritism in the Cobham, a hurdle race for three-year-olds.
