Maiden team look for Group-race success

Malcolm Saunders is planning a trip to Ireland or York with stable star Indian Maiden after the locally-trained mare recorded the fifth Listed-race success of her career at Bath yesterday.

The six-year-old was sent off the 7-2 favourite to repeat her victory of 12 months ago in the EBF Lansdown Fillies’ Stakes and Ted Durcan delivered her to lead close home and claim the spoils by a neck from Dhekraa.
