Two in two weeks for Tartlette

Tara trainer Shane Crawley was celebrating again at Dundalk this evening when Seamie Heffernan won for the second time this month at the track with Tartlette.

Two weeks ago Tartlette raced to an impressive victory ahead of three higher-rated rivals for a first success since November 2019 for a fourth win at Dundalk, all accompanied by Seamie Heffernan.

This evening Tartlette followed up in fine style landing the Willie Buckley Memorial Handicap over 10 furlongs.

The Crawley-trained winner finished ahead of Siobhan Rutledge and Blackstone Cliff which was finishing second for the second time in-a-row after leading briefly at the furlong pole.

"We'll see how she comes out of it and see if there is another race suitable here, but if not she might get a little break,” stated Crawley ti irishracing.com
