Yesterday it was Hope Jones’s day with Party Boat and today was her sister Isabelle de Tomaso’s day with Irish Strait.  Irish Strait was third last time out on his comeback after a year off but he bettered that today with a good win.    It has now taken his earnings to over the $100,000 mark so many congratulations to this homebred out of Isabelle’s good mare Irish Sovereign.  She always told us the family mature with time and she wasn’t wrong.
