Sun 21 Oct 2018

Sands Of Mali put in a sensational performance to make all in the Group-1 British Champions Sprint at Ascot on Saturday defeating Europe's best sprinters in devastating fashion.  Having been so unlucky when runner-up in the G1 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot in June, Richard Fahey's star three year-old repelled mutiple Group-1 winner Harry Angel to win by a length under Paul Hanagan for owners The Cool Silk Partnership.  A breeze-up purchase for £75,000, Sands Of Mali has now won just under £700,000 in career earnings and looks set for an exciting 2019.
