Dean Summersby gets point-to-point season off to a dream start at Great Trethew

The East Cornwall fixture at Great Trethew heralded the start of the new point-to-point season in the Westcountry on Sunday, November 6. Dean Summersby, the leading trainer in Devon and Cornwall, started the season with two winners and three placings. Roc The Motion, who suffered a freak accident at Vauterhill in May, won the Open Maiden for four to six-year-olds sponsored by Dawe, Hawken & Dodd and Prydis. From The Heart completed a weekend double for champion jockey James King after his success at Knightwick. Dorrells Pierji was a well backed favourite to add to the Summers by haul in INEOS Grenadier Mixed Open under Charlotte Summers.
