Sioux Nation Off The Mark In Irish Season Opener

Coolmore's G1 Phoenix S. hero Sioux Nation (by Scat Daddy) got off to the brightest start to his stud career possible on Saturday as his daughter Ocean Quest (Ire) struck in the Irish flat turf season opener at The Curragh. Missing the break in the five-furlong Alkumait Standing At Castlefield Stud With A €100,000 Bonus Irish EBF Maiden, the Jessie Harrington-trained chestnut soon raced behind the leaders and would have been an unlucky loser had the gap not come in time so well was she travelling inside the final furlong. Once Shane Foley had open air, the 11-2 shot drove between rivals to gather in Forceful Speed (Ire) (New Bay {GB}) close to the line for a head success.

Another For Harrington As One Voice Takes the Blue Wind

Runner-up to the fellow Jessie Harrington-trained Silence Please (Ire) (Gleneagles {Ire}) in Navan’s Listed Salsabil S. over 10 furlongs June 10, Craig Bernick’s One Voice (Ire) (Poet’s Voice {GB}) went one better in Leopardstown’s G3 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Blue Wind S. on Sunday. Reserved early towards the rear by Shane Foley, the 16-5 shot was unleashed wide to cut down Snow (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) in the last 150 yards en route to a half-length success, with Yaxeni (Fr) (Maxios {GB}) 2 1/4 lengths away in third.
