Having already won both maidens on The Curragh's Saturday card, Ryan Moore again picked right in the G2 Galileo Irish EBF Futurity S. as he steered Ballydoyle's imposing TDN Rising Star Aesop's Fables (Ire) (No Nay Never) to an impressive success in the seven-furlong juvenile staging post. Not seen since winning on debut over an extended five furlongs at Navan Apr. 23, the half-brother to the stable's classy sprinter Washington DC (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}) had to see out this trip as the G3 Tyros S. winner Proud And Regal (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and stablemate and fellow TDN Rising Star Hans Andersen (GB) (Frankel {GB}) making it a test up ahead. Adrift of the latter as he took control passing the two-furlong pole, the 3-1 shot powered past in the final 100 yards for an authoritative 2 1/4-length success, with a neck back to Proud And Regal in third.
Oh my!
Aesop's Fables really knuckles down to the challenge of catching stablemate Hans Andersen in the Galileo Irish EBF Futurity Stakes at @curraghrace and looks a serious prospect for Ballydoyle pic.twitter.com/enqnMlfQeX— Racing TV (@RacingTV) August 20, 2022
