Bells strikes again in style

Bells On Her Toes quickened away in style to land the caulfieldindustrial.com Handicap at Galway for Andy Slattery.
Cian Horgan gave the 7/2 favourite a confident ride as she travelled well to tackle front-runner Free Solo turning for home.
She was sent about her business inside the final furlong and skipped clear to record a three-length success.
The winner was following up on a recent victory, six days ago, at Naas.
"I was hoping she'd do that and hopefully she'll get into the Ahonoora on Sunday. She was number three to get in but might get a run now and the more rain that falls the better,” said Slattery.
"She was second in Naas a couple of weeks ago but was only back in training two weeks as Eithne (Thompson, owner) took her home for a break. She has improved and the bit of time off has done her good.
"I thought it was all over a furlong out bar something happened and this is great. She is a half-sister to an Athasi Stakes winner (With Thanks) and eventually we'll go across the water if we have to find a black-type race for her.
"Andrew (Slattery, son) was suspended today so we gave the chance to Cian so hopefully he'll get more rides from that as he is well capable."
