The Hollywood Syndicate secured two wins today, just seconds apart from each other in time, but 13,000km apart in distance! (supplied pictures above)
Both races went off at 14:10 (12:10 Ireland time), with both horses sitting second as they neared the latter parts of their respective races.
But both found another gear and pulled away from their opposition, with the Brett Crawford-trained Poorlittlerichgirl (Dynasty) winning under Kabelo Matsunyane at Turffontein in Johannesburg, and the Willie Mullins-trained Il Etait Temps, a G1 winner over hurdles last season, winning under Paul Townend in his chase debut at Thurles in Ireland.
Poorlittlerichgirl was backed in from 10/1 to 13/2 and Il Etait Temps started 8/15 favourite.
Both horses are owned in partnership with Ridgemont (known as Barnane Stud in Ireland).
