FORMER Danish international event rider Dot Love is re-inventing herself yet again having signed off on her racehorse training career last Sunday. The mother of two and grandmother of four, who has lived in Ireland since the mid-1960s, enjoyed a superb final weekend as a licensed trainer.
She first sent out the Aaron Murphy-partnered Betty Zane (25/1) to land the mares’ bumper at Cork on Saturday before Sarah Kavanagh guided Flindt (16/1) to victory in the Happy Retirement Dot Love Ladies Handicap Hurdle at Fairyhouse the following afternoon. That Co Meath track was, of course, where Dot recorded her biggest training success when, in 2013, she saddled Liberty Counsel to win the Ladbrokes Irish Grand National as a 50/1 shot under then 5lbs-claimer, Ben Dalton.
