Review curragh 15th Jul
< Enable produced a scintillating performance to complete the English/Irish Oaks double in the Darley-sponsored Classic at the Curragh.
John Gosden's 2-5 favourite tracked pacesetter Bengala until Frankie Dettori unleashed her with a little more than two furlongs to travel.
She quickly established a gap on her rivals and although Rain Goddess tried to give chase, Enable was full of running and powered clear to cross the line with five and a half lengths in hand, even though Dettori was able to ease her down.< Caspian Prince caused an upset as he denied Marsha in a head-bobbing finish to the Group Two Friarstown Stud Sapphire Stakes.
Tony Coyle's 10-1 shot made the running but Marsha was always in his slipstream, although she didn't find as much as expected when hitting the front and Caspian Prince battled back to get the verdict by a short head.< Actress taught the boys a thing or two with a clear-cut victory in the Jebel Ali Silver Jubilee Anglesey Stakes.
Aidan O'Brien's 7-1 chance had something to prove following a costly defeat at Tipperary but rose to the occasion to beat Theobald by a length and three-quarters, with odds-on favourite Brother Bear doing himself no favours by hanging left when under pressure.
O'Brien's The Pentagon (9-2) didn't look anything above average when beaten on his debut but improved out of sight for the Club Godolphin Irish EBF Maiden and sauntered away to an eight-and-a-half-length demolition job.
O'Brien completed a treble when Air Supremacy claimed the Heffernan Tyres Maiden.< Tithonus added the Tote Scurry Handicap to his Rockingham win from the last meeting here.
The Denis Hogan-trained 10-1 shot was always prominent in the hands of Gary Halpin and stuck his neck out admirably to fend off Snap Shots by half a length.< Severus (4-1 favourite) continued his good run of form with victory in the K Club Handicap, while Lisa O'Neill won the Boodles Ladies Derby Handicap on Miles To Memphis (9-2).
