Carey Takes Second Speed Class At Barcelona

IRISH riders have dominated the speed classes at the Spanish venue this weekend, with Lt. Shane Carey and Cian O'Connor being the main contenders.

Carey confirmed Irish supremacy today (Sunday) in these classes with his second Speed win, on the 11 yr old mare <Laughton's Lass>, owned by John Troy of Dublin and leased to the Army Equitation School.

Carey and O'Connor repeated their speed act from yesterday's Haagen-Dazs Cup, with Carey taking the No. 1 spot, and O'Connor following in fourth with <ABC Land Liebe>. The tussle at the top today was ferocious, with only fractions of a second separating the likes of Carey, Sweden's Malin Baryard, Italy's Roberto Arioldi, and Ireland's O'Connor.

O'Connor had also taken a second place on Thursday, when he came second in the opening class, a Table A against the clock.

The 2003 final of the Samsung Super League takes places at Barcelona later today, with Ireland battling to hold onto its No.2 position.
