Dream Ahead retired to stud

DREAM Ahead, who gave Hayley Turner an historic Group One success in the Darley July Cup, has been retired to stud.

The colt, who won five times at the top level, is to stand at Ballylinch Stud in County Kilkenny, and in Australia at Emirates Park Stud in New South Wales.

The David Simcock-trained three-year-old earned champion sprinter-elect honours this year with victories in the Darley July Cup, Betfred Sprint Cup and Qatar Prix de la Foret, where he beat wonder mare Goldikova.
