First Black Type Winner For Magna Grecia

News — Sun, 02 Jul 2023 13:30:44 +0000

Coolmore's first-crop sire Magna Grecia (Ire) (by Invincible Spirit {Ire}) can be counted among those who are responsible for a black-type winner after his son Myconian (Ire) captured Sunday's Listed Prix Yacowlef at Deauville. Sent off the 29-10 favourite for the five-furlong test, the Amy Murphy-trained son of the Listed Tipperary S. winner and G3 Curragh S. third Sirici (Ire) (Choisir {Aus}) who was his sire's first winner back in March raced in a close-up second under Aurelien Lemaitre throughout the early stages. Gaining the lead approaching the furlong pole, the €27,000 Tatts Ireland September graduate clung on to score by a head as the Andre Fabre-trained Salva Mea (GB) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) lunged late.
