Bible trounces Harriet field

BIBLE BELT looked a class apart when the Big Bad Bob filly routed her rivals in the Listed Hurry Harriet Stakes at Gowran Park last night.

Shane Foley had a very easy time on the three-year-old, which could be called a winner a long way from home and the 11/2 shot ran out a most impressive winner over Hurricane Havoc.

“She surprised me the way that she quickened up and left them for dead. On paper it looked a competitive race but, when Shane gave her a squeeze two furlongs out, she just took off,” commented the winning trainer Jessica Harrington.
