Bocca Baciata eases to success at listed Victor McCalmont Stakes
A third winner in twenty-four hours for Jessica Harrington and Colm O’Donoghue, the 6/4 favourite was in command from the furlong-pole but gave her supporters a few anxious moments as O’Donoghue eased her heavily close home and only held the persistent challenge of the Dermot Weld-trained three-year-old Discipline by a head, the pair stretching six lengths clear of the third, Steip Amach.
Winning trainer Harrington commented: “The Curragh race (seasonal debut in heavy ground) was a non-event, so I’m delighted she’s back on track.
