Soldier Of Fortune Mare Provides Timely Update

Dame De Fortune (5m Soldier Of Fortune - Blodge, by Kalanisi) made all to run out an impressive winner of the mares’ maiden at Tralee on Sunday.

The Cian Collins-trained bay boasted a ten length advantage with four fences left to jump and drew further clear from the second last to win unchallenged.

Owned by the Robinstown Stables Partnership, Dame De Fortune was building on two seconds earlier in the season. The daughter of Soldier Of Fortune was bred by Tom O’Doherty and provides an important update for her half-brother by Walk In The Park, who is catalogued in next month’s Tattersalls Ireland Derby Sale.
