Penthesilea completes Bolger/Manning double
Penthesilea Eile handled the ground well and appears to go on any surface. Hopefully we'll get another day out with her!
Irish Champion Stakes next for Casual Conquest
Casual Conquest did that nicely as the runner-up is a decent horse. Casual Conquest is ideally suited by soft ground but extremes of ground are not for him - he has now won one Group 1 and two Group races.
Good Time Sue records second Curragh win
Shanahan excels on Girouette
Pat (Shanahan) gave her a masterful ride today. She has had her problems but he knows her so well. She is a filly that you don't want to 'disappoint' when riding her and Pat let her stride on. It was a really top class ride.
Famous Name delivers in style
Famous Name did it very well and has been very consistent all year. One mile is his optimum trip and he may run next in the Prix Du Moulin at Longchamp in September.
'Exciting' St Nicholas a gift for Curragh punters
St Nicholas Abbey did that very well and is an exciting horse. The pace of the race was slow but to have a horse which can quicken like that off a slow pace is exciting to see.
