THE West of Yore meeting held at Hornby Castle last Sunday was one of only three meetings nationally to survive the frost last weekend.

Tom Greenall was the jockey to follow, riding a double with both wins on David Easterby-trained horses.

First leg came in the restricted when High Peak (Middleton) followed up his Market Rasen win with an impressive success.

Given a confident ride, the seven-year-old closed over the final circuit, going smoothly through to lead two from home and was never hard-pressed in winning by two and a half lengths.

Just Fluster (Lady S Watson/Middleton) led three out but couldn't match the speed of the winner, Guy Brewer riding.

Ridden by Tim Oats, William Bethell's Dolphin Square (Holderness) made all until weakening three from home. He kept on to finish third.

The double was completed in the third division of the Maiden when High Fields (Middleton), who travelled well throughout, quickened clear on the flat to win going away by four lengths.

Jethro Tell (M Stirk/West of Yore), who disputed the lead at the last, kept on well for Guy Brewer to hold second by a neck from Annie-Jo (G White) who made much of the running under Ran Morgan.

Fifteen-year-old Balisteros (Berwicks) followed up his win at Duncombe Park by taking a competitive Ladies Open in the hands of Pauline Robson.

Billie Thomson's veteran had made much of the running, but another veteran Silver Groom (T Rose/Middleton), aged 14, was making steady headway and hit the front approaching the last under Jacqueline Coward.

At the last Silver Groom led by a length from Balisteros and the prominently-ridden Dun Distinctly (G Lee/Hurworth). In a great finish, Balisteros rallied and got back up to win by half a length.

Silver Groom finished second, half a length in front of the 50-1 shot Dun Distinctly, ridden by Lucy Horner.

Guy Brewer partnered the David Coates-trained Victoria's Boy (Pendle) to success in the Men's Open.

Close up throughout, Victoria's Boy eased clear of the field after the third last and galloped on for an easy eight-length win to justify favouritism.

Spring Double, ridden by P Mousey-Heysham, kept on well to take second, six lengths in front of Extra Jack (Morpeth). Ridden by Charlie Shirley-Bevan, he weakened in the closing stages.

In an exciting race the first division of the Maiden went to Maxine Stirk's five-year-old Eighty Days (West of Yore). He raced close up throughout and fought out a great battle with Sweeping Storm (E Smith).

Eighty Days led by a length at the last and was hard driven by Ran Morgan to beat the Chris Dennis-ridden horse by a head on the line.

On a good day for the veterans, 14-year-old Erzadjan (J Mackley/South Durham), trained by Sarah Dent, won for the first time since 1996 in taking the Confined.

Ridden by Lee Bates, he came from well off the pace to lead approaching the last and quicken clear after the fence to record a three-length win.

Darak (Hurworth), owned and ridden by Nigel Tutty, finished second. She made most of the running and was three lengths clear at the third last.

In the second Maiden Shirostan (R Hopkins/Cleveland) made every yard of the running under Phillip Kinsella until caught on the line by the fast-finishing Super Dolphin (Bramham Moor), ridden by owner Richard Tate.

* On Sunday, the Derwent point to point takes place at Charm Park, first race 12.30.
