Butterfly provides birthday winner
Tuesday, March 26, 2013
IRON BUTTERFLY read the script and provided her trainer with a winner on his birthday at Fontwell today. It is proving to be a lucky track as we now have a strike rate of 25% there, 2 winners from 8 runners. It was great for her owner and breeder, Harold Nass, as he is a great supporter of the yard and he will eventually keep her to breed from. He is still breeding from her mother but she is advancing in years and will only be covered once more. Hopefully IRON BUTTERFLY can prove to be a suitable replacement once her racing days are over. She will not run over jumps again this jump season but will revert to the flat and we will try to make her winner there too. She should be more than capable of being a winner under both codes and this will enhance her future value as a broodmare.
