Frost receives warm applause in victory from Warwick racegoers

Rider puts matters off the course to one side.

Bryony Frost received a warm reception after winning the opening race at Warwick on Thursday.

At around the same time the independent disciplinary panel of the British Horseracing Authority ruled she had been bullied and harassed by fellow rider Robbie Dunne, Frost was in competitive action aboard Graystone for trainer Lucy Wadham.

Having been placed on his first two jumping starts, the Dark Angel gelding was an 11-4 chance for the Agetur (UK) Ltd Juvenile Maiden Hurdle and produced a dominant front-running display.

Saint Riquier, the 13-8 favourite, attempted to close the gap from the home turn, but Graystone proved seven lengths too strong and Frost returned to the winner’s enclosure to applause from racegoers.
