Gleneagles Newcomer Wins The Goffs Million

Prepared for a debut of extra significance by Paddy Twomey, the Connolly Racing Syndicate's One Look (Ire) (Gleneagles {Ire}) stormed to a six-length success in The Curragh's Goffs Million on Saturday to cap a red-letter day for the stable. Well-supported into 5-1 second favouritism, the €65,000 Goffs Orby graduate waited towards the back early under Billy Lee. Sent forward as the even-money favourite Cherry Blossom (Ire) (No Nay Never) made her move passing two out, she swamped that rival at the furlong pole and powered clear for an emphatic introduction.

No Nay Never’s Array Wins The Mill Reef

Third in the G3 Sirenia S. earlier this month, Juddmonte's Array (Ire) (No Nay Never–Joyeuse {GB}, by Oasis Dream {GB}) put that experience to full use by garnering Newbury's G2 Dubai Duty Free Mill Reef S. on Saturday. Always near the fore, the Andrew Balding-trained 7-4 favourite was committed by Oisin Murphy passing two out and had to scrap late to ward off Mister Sketch (GB) (Territories {Ire}) and score by half a length, with Seven Questions (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) a short head away in third.

First Black Type Winner For Study Of Man As Deepone Dominates The Beresford

Bouncing out of Leopardstown's G2 Champions Juvenile S. earlier this month, Vimal Khosla's Deepone (GB) (Study Of Man {Ire}–Avyanna {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}) dominated Saturday's G2 Alan Smurfit Memorial Beresford S. at The Curragh. Fourth last time, the Paddy Twomey-trained 3-1 joint-second favourite soon had control on the front end under Billy Lee and never looked like being reeled in as he secured a 1 3/4-length defeat of Chief Little Rock (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), who was a short head in front of fellow Ballydoyle runner Grosvenor Square (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) in third. The win was the first at black-type level for Deep Impact's first-crop sire Study Of Man and Twomey revealed that Deepone may attempt to emulate him by winning next year's G1 Prix du Jockey Club. “I see him as a French Derby type, I think he'll stay and he's probably more of a mile-and-a-quarter horse,” he said. “Things didn't go right last time and we had the highest-rated horse and decided to ride him like that and if they were good enough they would come and beat us. He has learned on the job and Billy said if something had come to him he'd have gone again.”
