National Champion trainer Sean Tarry scored another milestone when reaching a likely record of 200 winners for the season on Saturday at Greyville and it was fitting it happened in a feature race.
Tarry had a strong hand in the Listed Off To Stud Stakes over 1600m on the polytrack.
However, in the end it was the least fancied of his five runners, Lady Of Kildare, who prevailed under a typically polished ride from Anthony Delpech, beating stablemate Enchanted Silk by 1,75 lengths.
This Klawervlei Stud-bred five-year-old Captain Al mare has now won half of her eight starts on the Greyville poly.
Tarry is thought to be the first trainer to have ever reached the 200-winner mark in a South African season. He saddled three more winners at Turffontein on Sunday to take his season tally to 203.
