Whilst the market very much flagged up a winning debut from Radio Silence in the opener, his Coolcullen stable companion, Cirin Toinne went off at odds of 12/1 for race two at Leopardstown, the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Fillies Maiden. The result was the same though, as Jim Bolger and Kevin Manning registered another win.

Always up there making the pace, the Jackie Bolger-owned home-bred got the better of the experienced Etched from a furlong out, going on to prevail by a length and three parts.

"She's my last Galileo. I had two nominations that year and she's the last one," said Bolger.

"She just needed a little bit of time. She was a very late foal and we didn't really train her last year, she was a little bit slow to learn.

"We'll look for some black-type and then she'll be a broodmare. Going up or down in trip wouldn't matter to her."
