The the opening Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Fillies Maiden at The Curragh on Oaks weekend went to the David Wachman trained newcomer Hint Of A Tint under Wayne Lordan.

Lordan held the daughter of Danehill Dancer up behind the leaders before producing his challenge to lead inside the final furlong, staying on well for a length success over Starbright

Afterwards Wachman stated “Hint Of A Tint is a nice filly and we've always thought a lot of her.

“She did it well on testing conditions that weren't ideal and we'll see how she comes out of this – there are plenty of nice fillies races later in the year for her.”
