View The Bay scores for Slattery & Coen Trainer Andy Slattery combined with his nephew Ben Coen to win the Happy Christmas From All At Dundalk Maiden at Dundalk this evening with 69 rated View The Bay. The daughter of Casamento was sent to post the 5/2 favourite and in the race raced prominently throughout, improved to lead over a furlong out and at the line held the fast and late challenge of Twenty Minutes by a neck. Afterwards Slattery, having his second winner in as many weeks, stated “it’s grand to win her maiden. I was afraid she wasn’t ready enough and Ben said she gave two big heaves so she probably needed it. “I was looking for a five or six furlong maiden but I couldn’t get it and took a gamble and came here. “She’s had a lot of niggly problems and is not easily trained. We’ll probably continue now for the winter and go for a handicap over a shorter trip.” Quotes from Alan Magee
