Aidan O’Brien was the dominant figure on day two of the second renewal of Champions’ Weekend, the Ballydoyle maestro taking all three Group 1 contests on yesterday’s card at the Curragh.

Aidan O’Brien has decided on the Palmerstown House Estate Irish St Leger at the Curragh on Sunday for Order Of St George in preference to the English version at Doncaster

Herald The Dawn, impressive when winning his maiden at Naas earlier this month, produced a sustained and very game effort to overcome soft ground and exciting filly Now Or Never in the Group 2 Galileo EBF Futurity Stakes yesterday afternoon at the Curragh.

In the end it was all very logical. 

Rerouted from yesterday’s Qipco 1,000 Guineas, presumably due to the fast ground, Found should make a winning start to her three-year-old campaign in the Canford Cliffs Athasi Stakes at the Curragh today.

Qipco 2000 Guineas favourite Gleneagles will strut his stuff at the Curragh on Sunday after Aidan O’Brien confirmed the exciting colt will be part of the Ballydoyle contingent working after racing.

Australia will emulate his parents if he manages to follow up his win at Epsom in the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby at the Curragh today.
