BAREFOOT ON SONG LANDS THE JOHN FITZGERALD MEMORIAL BITCH STAKE

Barry Drake

Impressive the last twice, Barefoot On Song (Grangeview Ten-Jaytee Osprey) made it three straight wins when landing the feature at Kilcohan Park on Saturday night, the €5,000 to the winner John Fitzgerald Memorial Mini Open Bitch Final.

Trained by Paul Hennessy for owners Bryan and Kathleen Murphy, the even-money favourite produced another good start and she turned right in the mix with Barro Ellie. Strong throughout, Barefoot On Song dug deep up front and she stayed on well to land the spoils. A magnificent 28.68 winning run, a length clear of the fast-finishing Piccadilly Attic in second place.
