Re: Horse Racing
Libertarian out for revenge

Libertarian aims to provide Elaine and Karl Burke with the perfect parting gift before heading off to pastures new in the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby.
The son of New Approach did not make his debut until winning a Pontefract maiden in early April and was seemingly exposed when only fourth on his next appearance at Sandown, but he roared back with a shock victory in the Dante Stakes at York to book his ticket to the biggest race of them all - the Epsom Derby.
Despite struggling to adapt to the undulating terrain, the sizeable colt ran a fantastic race in the premier Classic, beating all bar Aidan O'Brien's Ruler Of The World.
