Steeplechase glory

Steeplechase glory

The Priory boys again took great pride in making participation in the junior and steeplechase a matter of house honour. Every Priory boy donned the 'blue and black' to brave the muddy contours of the course and produced a number of excellent performances. Sean Ramsay was first senior home, in 9th place, and in the juniors special mention must be made of fine runs from James Porter (8th) and James Lewis (13th) but pride of place went to Patrick Tuffy who came in 6th and won the trophy for the first B block boy home. Patrick also had enough energy left on Thursday to score twice for Leicester City academy in a 5-0 win over Manchester United at Carrington.
