RACING:Trainer Nigel Twiston-Davies was delighted to see Changing Times get off the mark over fences at the third attempt with a neat round of jumping in the Direct 365 Small Business Washroom Services Beginners' Chase at Market Rasen yesterday.

The six-year-old showed some smart form over hurdles when trained here by Oliver McKiernan and made a decent start for new connections by filling the runner-up spot at Carlisle and Taunton respectively.

Once again tackling a right-handed track, the 4 to 6 favourite was sent straight to the lead by Sam Twiston-Davies and produced some fine leaps heading down the back straight to leave three of his four rivals toiling, eventually beating market rival Monturgeon by five lengths.
