News of the action from Newcastles first all-weather meeting where Tap The Honey etched his name into the history books. Tap The Honey went into racing history as the first horse to win on the new track.The three-year-old gelding, trained by Karl Burke and ridden by Joey Hanyes, came out on top in the Extra Place Betting At 188Bet Maiden Stakes over 10 and a half furlongs. Dont Tell Nik took the field along until three furlongs out, where several horses came into connection, but it was Tap The Honey (9-1) who pulled clear of the opposition to open his account in good style.Kings Gold took the runner-up spot, four and a half lengths away, with Roger Varians newcomer Gibbs Hill a further two and a quarter lengths away in third.Haynes said: Hes done it nicely. I couldnt fault the track at all. It was riding lovely and fair for all of us.We went a nice gallop and he travelled for me and kept quickening when I asked him to.We werent 100 per cent how well hed stay because hes not bred to stay that far, but he has. Hes seen it out nicely today and it might be his perfect trip.

Its here now so well make the most of it. What I will say is this is somewhere well be able to bring our horses all year round, which is a bonus.Weve never had many Southwell horses, and Lingfield and Wolverhampton are far enough away for the money youd be running for. Its good prize-money here today, so lets hope that is the norm.It was a welcome winner for Burke - and on his 53rd birthday - as his team has not been firing on all cylinders.He did it well. He was one of the two horses we took up for the trials and he galloped well so we knew hed handle the surface, said the Middleham trainer, who was not at Gosforth Park.He had a run after that at Thirsk and needed it. There was a bit of a question mark about the trip, but it worked out well.No plans really as that was the plan. Id imagine hed have an entry in the July Sales and will have one or two runs before going there.He got me off the cold list and its nice to get a winner on your birthday. Its been hard going the last couple of months. Some of our horses havent been performing particularly well, but they are on the turn now.Well kick on from here.Mark Johnston was against the ripping up of the turf track - which he described as among the best in the world - but nevertheless pledged to have plenty of runners now it was an all-weather course and duly landed the feature race with Turbine.Based in Middleham, just over an hour away, Johnston has been banging the drum for some time that the northern racing scene was crying out for an all-weather track, given the travelling involved to get to Lingfield, Kempton, Chelmsford and Wolverhampton.Speaking after Turbine (4-1) won the 188bet.co.uk Handicap by a length for Joe Fanning, Johnston said: I have no hesitation in saying this is going to be the best all-weather track, but Ive also said all along I didnt want to lose it as a turf track.They were always going to make a good job of it, Michael Dickinson (inventor of Tapeta) is a perfectionist and the layout here is the best in Britain, its just sad to lose it as a turf track.Ill have plenty of runners here, its the most convenient to me and its the best.Regarding his winner, he said: He won impressively on his debut, but there have been a few stumbling blocks along the way.Hes still a young horse and was back on form today. Hes still unexposed.David OMeara wasted no time in opening his account on the surface when Tawdeea defied top weight in the Best Odds Guaranteed At 188Bet Handicap.With Sam James deputising for the injured Danny Tudhope, the 9-1 chance was caught flat footed two furlongs out but clicked into overdrive on entering the final furlong.He came with a relentless run down the outside to mow down Demonstration and win going away by a length and a half.Its nice to get one here early, and for David, as Ive not had much look for him lately said James. I couldnt go the pace early but I gave him a chance and it paid off.OMeara doubled up when 13-8 favourite Alsvinder was a convincing winner of the 188Bet Daily Horse Racing Charter Maiden Stakes.Fresh from cheering home Clever Cookie to Yorkshire Cup glory on Friday a still hoarse Peter Niven was celebrating again as Barwah (10-1) took the first division of the Tapeta Footings Handicap.Racing off a lowly mark of 48, Niven has had the new surface in mind for some time.Shes not that bad but it always seemed to be the wrong ground when we ran her, Niven said of the Jack Garritty-ridden winner.I thought the stiff mile might find her out but shes seen it out well. I had a feeling this surface would suit her so weve been looking forward to it.It walks lovely here but I thought it might ride a bit deeper than they are saying it is.The second division of what was the first ever straight one-mile race run on an artificial surface anywhere in the world went to Brian Ellisons Legal Art (14-1).Ellison was surprisingly absent but winning jockey Ben Curtis said: Im not sure what the key to her has been. The first time I rode her I recommended blinkers but she never went a yard in them.She was up in trip today but only just saw it out, Id say seven is probably ideal.I was here for the trials and it rides lovely, its very fair, open and galloping - youd struggle to find an excuse.A straight mile on the all-weather takes some getting, though, and it might take a few meetings before the lads work out the best way to ride it.And there was an Irish-trained winner in the last as Coto (5-1) scored for County Tipperary-based Matty Tynan.Newcastles clerk of the course James Armstrong was heartened by the feedback - or lack of it - he had received regarding how the track was riding.I havent had that much feedback, which Im taking as a good sign, he said.I did have a word with Andrea Atzeni and he was very happy.Were using Wolverhampton as a benchmark and apparently it is riding just a bit slower than there, which is what we expected.Im just pleased to finally get going. Its been a very quick turnaround, we lost our last two jumps fixtures to get going on the development, but then we had that very wet spell which slowed us up a bit.Credit must go to Stobart and Joan Wakefield of Tapeta Holdings for it all coming together.We had a big entry at the five-day stage, so we had an idea wed be well supported, but its nice to see people who werent in favour of the switch having runners here.Essentially it should be fairer than the other all-weather tracks, as it is more galloping and weve also kept the original contours.

VANCOUVER -- The man nicknamed after a cartoon character put in another superhero-like performance. Demetrious (Mighty Mouse) Johnson dominated Ali (Puncher) Bagautinov from start to finish Saturday to win a unanimous decision and retain his flyweight title at UFC 174. Johnson showed his pedigree against a challenger who took a beating and was never really a threat at Rogers Arena. "It was a great performance," said Johnson. "Ali Bagauntinov, hes a tough guy. I hit him with a lot of shots with my knees to his face ... my knees are hurting pretty bad. "Usually when I hit people with those shots in the gym they go down." The bout marked the first time the flyweight division has headlined a UFC pay-per view card and was scored 50-45 by all three judges. "(Bagauntinov) likes to back up a lot and draw his opponents in and then go underneath them for a shot," said Johnson. "We knew that he was going to try to wrestle me to slow me down." In the co-main event, Canadian welterweight Rory (Ares) MacDonald defeated Tyron (The Chosen One) Woodley in an impressive unanimous decision in the most exciting bout of the night. Johnson almost connected with a spinning kick with under a minute to go in the fifth and final round, but Bagautinov was able to avoid the blow to send the bout to the scorecards. The five-foot-three Johnson (20-2-1, 8-1-1) won the UFCs inaugural flyweight title back in 2012 and has now successfully defended the 125-pound belt four times. The 27-year-old who fights out of Parkland, Wash., said this week that the five-foot-four Bagautinov (13-3, 3-1) would pose a unique challenge because the 29-year-old Russian specializes in Sambo fighting, a form of mixed martial arts that he has never faced. But in the end, Baugatinov was overmatched and at times just seemed happy to be in the ring with Johnson, even hugging his opponent before the start of the fifth round. MacDonald, who came into his fight as the No. 2 contender in the 170-division, controlled Woodley from the middle of the first round on, using his superior reach to keep the two-time All-American wrestler at bay, while also connecting with both kicks and punches. All three judges scored the fight 30-27 for MacDonald. The 24-year-old MacDonald (17-2, 8-2) took Woodley down two minutes into the third and final round and relentlessly pounded the No. 3-ranked welterweight until the bell sounded. MacDonalds team rushed into the octagon to congratulate their fighter as the crowd of 13,506 roared in approval. "I trained very hard," he said. "I wanted this fight to be the best performance of my career." Born in Quesnel, B.C., but now fighting out of Montreals Tristar Gym, MacDonald was mentored by Georges St-Pierre before the former champion stepped away from the sport late last year. The soft-spoken MacDonald lost to Robbie Lawler in a split decision at Novembers UFC 167, but rebounded to take a unanimous decision against Demian Maia at UFC 170 in February. "I feel like Im falling into a groove," said MacDonald. "Somethings clicking." The 32-year-old Woodley (13-3, 3-2), who scored a technical knockout of Carlos Condit at UFC 171 in March, said bbefore the fight he expected the crowd to be split, but he was sorely mistaken as the Canadian support found its way firmly behind MacDonald from the start, including chants of "Lets go Rory" throughout the tilt.dddddddddddd MacDonald lost to Condit at UFC 115 in Vancouver back in June 2010 and he admitted this week that the moment got to him four years ago -- something that didnt happen Saturday. "Ive grown a lot since then," he said. "It was nice being in Vancouver. The response was great." Saturday marked the UFCs first foray into Vancouver since UFC 131 back in June 2011. There were large pockets of empty seats in the arenas upper level on this night and the crowd didnt really get into the action until MacDonald and Woodley entered the octagon. Earlier Saturday night, light heavyweight Ryan (Darth) Bader defeated Rafael (Feijao) Cavalcante by unanimous decision in a fight that had fans getting a little restless due to a lack of action. Bader (18-4, 10-4) was the more ambitious fighter in the first two rounds, and perhaps sensing a need to score a knockout to win the bout, Cavalcante (12-5, 2-2) came out swinging in the third, but the Brazilian was unable to land any decisive blows. In the heavyweight division, former champion Andrei (The Pit Bull) Arlovski defeated Brendan (The Hybrid) Schaub by a split decision in his return to UFC after more than six years away from the company. Arlovski (22-10 with one no contest) looked tentative early and spent the majority of the last round on his back, but did enough to earn the victory on two of the judges three scorecards to improve his UFC record to 11-4. A bloodied Schaub (11-4, 6-4) raised his arms at the end of the fight thinking that he had done enough to win, and seemed surprised by the decision. Meanwhile, light heavyweight Ovince Saint Preux won by submission after breaking the left arm of Ryan (The Big Deal) Jimmo at 2:10 of the second round. Jimmo (19-4, 3-3) -- who is from Saint John, N.B., but now fights out of Edmonton -- was bloodied in the first round and nearly had his arm ripped out of its socket before the referee stopped the fight to keep Saint Preux (16-6, 4-0) perfect in the UFC. In the preliminary fights: welterweight Kiichi (Strasser) Kunimoto defeated Daniel Sarafian by submission at 2:52 of the first round; womens bantamweight Valerie (Trouble) Letourneau of Montreal defeated Elizabeth Phillips in a brutal slugfest by a split decision; bantamweight Yves (Tiger) Jabouin scored a unanimous decision over Mike (The Hulk) Easton; lightweight Tae Hyun (Supernatural) Bang knocked out (Ragin) Kajan Johnson of Burns Lake, B.C., at 2:01 of the third round; bantamweight Roland Delorme of Winnipeg dropped a unanimous decision to Michinori Tanaka; and lightweight Jason Saggo of Toronto defeated Josh Shockley by technical knockout at 4:57 of the first round. Notes: The gate brought in US$1.14 million. ... Bang got fight of the night honours, as well as performance of the night. Kunimoto was also awarded for performance of the night. ... Former Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow was in attendance. The crowd booed the former NFLer when he was shown on the big screens perched around Rogers Arena. ' ' '
