McHale Orbital INH Flat Race
A Stoirin won the McHale Orbital Flat Race at Ballinrobe over 2m148y on good going at 11/8 favourite. The horse raced prominently, settled in third early, dropped to fourth with five furlongs left, then steadily improved to take second approaching the final furlong before hitting the front 200 yards out and pulling away to the line. Bacharach tracked the leaders in fourth, moved up to share the lead with three furlongs to run, went clear two furlongs out and briefly edged in front again with a furlong left, but was headed 200 yards from home and held on to finish second, four and a half lengths behind the winner. Time For Talking finished third.
