Fictional Account set for Fame rematch in Irish St Leger

FICTIONAL Account will lock horns with Fame And Glory again in next month’s Irish Field St Leger at the Curragh.

Vincent Ward’s mare caused a huge shock at the weekend when beating Aidan O’Brien’s Ascot Gold Cup winner in a trial for the final Irish Classic of the season.

With the winner of Saturday’s race earning themselves a spot in the big race if they were not already entered, Ward is happy to let the six-year-old take her chance, with the Doncaster Cup an alternative option.
