Stars eclipses Sandown rivals

Jul 4 2009

Sea The Stars stamped his class on the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown Park with a thrilling success.

Mick Kinane committed for home with two furlongs to travel on the 2000 Guineas and Derby winner, and he was chased into the closing stages by his old adversary Rip Van Winkle.

The Ballydoyle challenger put in a determined bid for glory, but Sea The Stars was always pulling out more and won the Group One prize by a length.
