Fallon gets back on winning trail
The champion jockey, who made a belated return to the track at Lingfield on Saturday after spending a month in an Irish clinic in a bid to beat a drink problem, took the mount with original jockey Brett Doyle a flu victim.
Fallon was content to hold Clive Brittain’s charge in the rear of the field as Logique made the early running but the partnership made headway down the back straight.
Taking up the running at the two furlong marker, Fallon needed to shake up his mount before pushing out the 10-11 favourite for a five lengths success over Celtic Lace. “That was good,” said Fallon on dismounting. “I’m delighted to be back amongst the winners again.”
