A Tuesday four-timer for the yard!
The Sean Tarry stable enjoyed a big day at the Vaal on Tuesday.
The yard sent out four winners on the eight-race card, with the stable’s charges Top Shelf Teddy, Artic Silver, Trajanus and Silver Tudor all winning their respective races. All four horses were ridden to victory by Craig Zackey.
ASSM Racing Syndicate’s Top Shelf Teddy got the day off to a flying start when she won the first race on the Vaal’s card.
The three-year-old daughter of Master Of My Fate powered home to claim the #Youcanbetonus! Maiden Plate (F and M) (1700m) by two lengths. Bred by Varsfontein Stud, Top Shelf Teddy, making her fourth start on Tuesday, is a full sister to the useful Peut Etre Moi.
The yard struck again on Tuesday when Querari filly Artic Silver won the Buy 4 Summer Garden Tickets Only Pay For 3 MR 74 Handicap (1800m). The four-year-old stormed home, full of running, to land the third win of her career by a length and a quarter while besting stablemate Peace Treaty.
