Marnane's filly bolts up in Dundalk feature After some good runs in defeat on turf this season, Aviatrice (11/4) returned to the scene of last year's maiden victory and bolted up in the featured Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap at Dundalk. Luke McAteer sat close to the pace on the winner and produced her to lead over a furlong out. She soon went clear under a hand ride to beat Empress Artemis by four and three-quarter lengths.  David Marnane, who trains the winner for MRC International, said: "This is a very, very good filly - I've made a balls of her. I brought her to Galway and I probably shouldn't have. Then I dropped her back in trip and I shouldn't have. Then even the storm stopped her from running here last week!  "I thought it was just going to be one of those years with her, but she has done that very well.  "She'll come back here for the Listed race (Cooley Fillies Stakes, November 7th) in a month's time.  "She's in the December Mares Sale and she is a very, very good filly.  "She has done a couple of pieces of work up here that would just blow you away. She's very quick, she travels and her form up here is rock-solid.  "I like the sire (Phoenix of Spain), they are good, solid horses.  "Hopefully she will go to the December Mares Sale - I'd love to keep her in the yard. If somebody bought her, I'd love to hang on to her." On the sales, he added: "We have bought a few yearlings. MRC5 is kicking off and we have bought a good few for them. We are trying, it is difficult. "We are going to Book 3 (at Tattersalls in Newmarket) on Thursday and Friday and hopefully we will secure some more." Additional reporting by Michael Graham
