Fallon to ride Sariska in Champion Stakes
KIEREN FALLON has bagged the prestigious ride on Sariska in the Champion Stakes at Newmarket on October 17 and will partner the Michael Bell-trained filly in her work on Wednesday morning.
The dual Oaks winner was not supplemented for the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe as the groundwas considered too fast and connections immediately targeted her for the Group 1 event at Newmarket with the prospect of easier ground in the offing.
Rain arrived in Newmarket on Tuesday morning and her trainer will be hoping that he sees more in 11-day run up to the race.
Bell said: "Kieren Fallon will ride Sariska in the Champion Stakes. Unfortunately, Jamie Spencer is suspended but you find no finer substitute than Kieren Fallon."
