First winner of the season for Harty

Sun 14th Jun 2009, 15:25

Sabrina Harty saddled her first winner of the jumping season when 20/1 shot Mayday Frontier came home in front of The Baileys Breeders Handicap Hurdle with Shane Hassett doing the steering for owner Finian O'Neill.

Winning trainer Harty said afterwards, "This is my first winner here in Downpatrick, I thought he would run well. I have a lot of good ground horses in the yard at the moment. I have nothing really planned for this fellow."
