NELSON'S BOUNTY won on his seasonal debut on 27th, beating a large field on the straight Ascot mile under his regular pilot Tony Culhane. NELSON had been off the track since 10th September last year, when he was nearly brought down at Sandown and returned with strained muscles and it was felt prudent to give him a decent break as he is such a big horse. The patience paid off for The Newmarket Pirates, who comprise Jan and Colin Harris, Tony Burlton and Paul and Sue. Jan and Colin were not present to celebrate one of their dearest wishes of having a winner at Ascot, as they are detained on Pirate business in the Caribbean!
