More Big-Race Glory For Bloom And McAleavy As Santorini Star Wins The Park Hill

[Wandering Eyes]

Tony Bloom and Ian McAleavy's purple patch continued at Doncaster on Thursday as Santorini Star (Golden Horn) proved strongest in the G2 Park Hill Stakes over the St Leger trip. In front from the outset under Tom Marquand, the 7-2 second favourite outstayed the year-younger Consent (Lope De Vega) in the closing stages to prevail by a neck.

“She won over two miles at York and the fact that she stays so well is what has won her the race,” Maureen Haggas said of the four-year-old. “She's really tough and Tom gave her a beautiful ride. We gave her a break in the summer and she seems to have come back a changed woman! She's going to be a broodmare for Tony Bloom and Ian McAleavy, who are top-class people with top-class advisors so this was really important.”

Gutsy!

Santorini Star grinds it out to score in the Group 2 @Betfred Park Hill Fillies' Stakes under @TomMarquand!
