Sasta brave in shedding maiden tag

Sasta was brave for Kevin Manning to win the CorkRacecourse.ie Handicap for Jim and Jackie Bolger.

Shedding her maiden tag at the ninth attempt the Dawn Approach filly fended off Ya Ya Baby and the finisher, Mighty Mirage by half a length and three parts of a length.

On behalf of her father Una Manning said: “She likes that ground and was very game. She dug deep.

“We’ll see what the handicapper does and I’d imagine she will go for something similar.”
