Ballydoyle failed to notch up a winner at Royal Ascot today but did register a winner on the day as newcomer Fleeting landed the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Maiden at Limerick this evening, under Derby winning jockey Padraig Beggy.
The daughter of Zoffany tracked leader Amaira in the early stages and in the end Fleeting battled her way to edge past runner-up Vallambrose in the closing stages for a neck win.
It was Beggy's first winner of the year and just his seventh since his famous win in last year's Epsom Derby on Wings Of Eagles.
