Newcomer to the U.S. steeplechase circuit, Irish pro Padge Whelan savored his first taste of Virginia racing to power Fox Ridge Farm’s Planets Aligned to victory in the $75,000 Temple Gwathmey (Gr. II) steeplechase stakes at Saturday's Middleburg Spring races.

Trained in Maryland by Tom Voss, the 7-year-old made the visit to Glenwood Park his first start of 2008 after winning three times and the National Steeplechase Association novice championship last year.
