O’Regan excited to partner Bewleys
Mar 27 2008 by Chris Wright, Liverpool Daily Post
DENIS O’REGAN can’t wait to ride Bewleys Berry in next week’s John Smith’s Grand National.
The Irish jockey was on board the Howard Johnson-trained 10-year-old when he was second to Mr Pointment over the National fences in the totesport.com Becher Chase in November.
Bewleys Berry was pulled up on his last run in the Red Square Vodka Gold Cup at Haydock last month.
He was going well when falling at Becher’s Brook second time round in last year’s National and the Graham Wylie-owned gelding is a best-priced 16-1 with Sportingbet for this year’s Aintree showpiece. And O’Regan said: “He’s got a lovely racing weight and you just need a lot of luck. If we get that luck on the day he could run a nice race.
“He’s a talented horse so we’d be hoping he’ll go well in the National.
“I just want to enjoy the ride as I liked him before – he’s a good, sound spin.”
