Oliver doubles up with a final race gamble

Moo Sahara provided trainer Andy Oliver with a double in the concluding Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Fillies Maiden at Dundalk this evening, landing a gamble in the process.
The daughter of Ad Valorem, ridden by Shane Foley, was backed from 12/1 on track into 6/1 and, having been held up in rear, made good progress to edge ahead close home for a narrow win over Urban Ball
Afterwards Oliver stated “she's a good honest filly but had a setback after her Ballinrobe run and had a bit of a break.
“I was unsure of the trip tonight so I asked Shane to drop her out and come late – he gave her a great ride.
“She is owned by lovely people (Joseph Donnelly) who are neighbours of mine and I'm delighted to win for them. She had a good blow after that and needed it.”
