Tarry, Tilbury take Turffontein
Training horses is by no means a stress-free occupation. It’s long hours, high expectations, often for little reward.
But when Sean Tarry finally closed his eyes on Saturday night, he must have been filled with pride.
The last year has been testing for the racing industry but through it all the Tarry stable continued to deal with all the issues and it all came together at Turffontein on Saturday when he came away with six winners.
Not any six, but a half-dozen that included the R2-million G-Bets Gauteng Summer Cup, the Grade 2 Merchants and the Listed Secretariat Stakes.
There were also two Maiden Plate winners who look well above average and that all bodes well for the future of the yard.
“I thought it would be tough today, and would have been happy with two winners,” said Tarry. “But as the day went on I grew more confident, as you do when things go your way.”
