Review CURRAGH 31st Aug
< Again maintained her impressive progress by justifying favouritism in the Group One Moyglare Stud Stakes.< Marquesa and Hello Bunclody ensured the race was run at a decent clip, but they paid for their early exertions as the race got serious.
Seamus Heffernan held the 6-4 shot towards the rear of the field, but slowly worked her into contention and she responded well to his urgings.< Shimah stalked the winner throughout and looked a serious threat inside the final furlong, but David Wachman's filly showed her class and registered a hard-fought half-length victory.< Look Busy continued her rise through the sprinting ranks with a decisive success in the Cill Dara Security Flying Five Stakes.
Alan Berry's raider (7-2) took up the running from compatriot Masta Plasta well over a furlong out and was always holding her rivals on her way to a one-and-a-quarter-length verdict.< Maoineach overcame a lack of previous racecourse experience to make a winning debut in the Group Three Go And Go Round Tower Stakes.
Jim Bolger's Congaree filly was sent off a largely unconsidered 14-1 shot but after tracking early leaders Like Magic and Three Way Stretch she responded well under Kevin Manning and scored by one and a quarter lengths from the staying-on Silver Shoon
The Listed Dance Design Stakes went the way of Kevin Prendergast's Beach Bunny (3-1).
Chris Hayes' mount was sat in third throughout the majority of the race and responded impressively when asked to go and win the race.< Deauville Vision finished two and a half lengths behind in second, with 4-5 favourite Finsceal Beo a disappointing third.< Tis Mighty (16-1) produced a career best effort to land the Hacketts European Breeders Fund Irish Cambridgeshire.
The five-year-old mare cruised into contention a couple of furlongs from home under Emmett McNamara and knuckled down towards the finish to keep the staying-on Amarama a length at bay.
