Review curragh 30th Aug

Kevin Prendergast's Termagant stormed into the limelight with a surprise victory in the Group One Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh.

Sent off at 16-1 due to the testing conditions and relative lack of experience, the daugher of Powerscourt looked comfortable throughout and could be seen travelling ominously well for Declan McDonogh.

The front-running Famous put up a brave fight when challenged, but she had no answer to Termagant's finishing kick and the winner had two and a half lengths in hand at the line.

The disappointments of the race were Lillie Langtry and Long Lashes who could finish only third and fourth respectively.< Chinese White recorded her second success of the campaign with a commanding display in the Dance Design Stakes.

Dermot Weld's filly was given a patient ride by Pat Smullen and after taking it up from Latin Love nearing the furlong pole, the 11-8 market leader drew four and a half length clear without being extended.

The Tracey Collins-trained Arctic cruised through the mud to land the Go And Go Round Tower Stakes in taking fashion.

Sent off the 11-8 favourite following his Listed stroll last month, the Shamardal colt just had to be nudged out by Pat Shanahan to beat Air Chief Marshal by four and a half lengths.< Reverence (5-1) rolled the back the years in the Grenzen Flying Five Stakes.

Eric Alston's veteran isn't the same force that saw him land the 2006 Nunthorpe and Haydock Sprint Cup, but he relished the surface to beat Judge 'n Jury by a length.< Poet (7/1) put up a fine performance to defy top weight in the Hacketts EBF Irish Cambridgeshire.

Ridden by 5lb claimer Sean Levey, the Aidan O'Brien inmate struck the front two furlongs from home and battled admirably to see off Raise Your Heart < Song Of My Heart got up close home to beat Mujaazef by half a length in the A.E.S. Recycling EBF Maiden, while Snap stayed on best of all to win the Mooney's Of Monastervin Handicap.
