Don't Tell Mary

Keith Trowbridge's 2yo filly Don't Tell Mary won the maiden at Bath last evening on her debut beating the odds-on favourite in the process.

This victory made several people very happy including Keith and his wife Mary (who, clearly, had found out) together with their two sons, daughter, daughter-in-law and friends of the family who were all present to greet their filly in the winner's enclosure and exhaust the supply of champagne in the hospitality lounge.

Paul Makin, the owner of Starcraft, a first-season sire, was reported to have been deliriously excited for his horse to sire a winner with his first runner.

Tom was more than a little excited as Don't Tell Mary was his 100th winner on the flat. (He had passed the 100 winner mark, overall, with the success of Gross Prophet on 5th May, but that score included three National Hunt winners)
