Caponata impresses on debut
Newcomer Caponata (5/1) ran out an impressive winner of the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden for her trainer Dermot Weld with Pat Smullen aboard. Sun 06th May
They are two nice fillies. I'd say the second filly is smart as well. The Group 3 on Guineas weekend (Abu Dhabi Stakes) at the Curragh would be the logical follow on. Hopefully both those fillies will have a good year. As the year progresses you would hope we can build to Group 1 status with her. I think she has the potential to be a Group 1 filly.

She did it nicely and she has a future. She won it very easy but the ground was testing and it may just have flattered her. A lot of them didn't handle the ground. She is a lovely big mare and we are taking our time with her. I expect patience to payoff.
