Saratoga Baby beats Mountrath at Dundalk© Photo Healy Racing
Off the track since early September, Saratoga Baby arrived fit and fancied (7s into 5s) for the Dundalk Stadium – Light Up Your Night Rated Race. He delivered for Peter Fahey with Shane Foley up.
The High Chaparral mare saw it out really well to defeat Mountrath by half a length.
Fahey remarked: "She deserved that. I don't know how many times she's run and she's never run a bad race.
"It's brilliant for the syndicate. She was bred by Brian Walsh (of Silver Birch fame) and a bunch of his friends own her.
"She'll probably come back here in a few weeks time." (AM & EM)
