Zaraahmando breaks his duck for the Slatterys

Zaraahmando trained by Andy Slattery and ridden by his son and namesake, opened his account at the ninth attempt with a convincing win in division one of the Follow Limerick On Instagram Handicap.

The easy-to-back 6/1 shot made steady headway in the straight to lead 100 yards out for a comfortable length and a half verdict over James The Second Hell Left Loose was the same distance further back in third.

Slattery saddled a second and third earlier on the card and said, “The horses have been running well all evening but just hadn't been getting there, so this is great.

"That distance and a fast pace suits this horse. All his owners are above in a pub in Moira (Co Down) and couldn't get down, but they're having a great day!"
