Weld eyeing Guineas gold

Dermot Weld is targeting the Etihad Airways Irish 1,000 Guineas with his exciting filly Yellow Rosebud.

The three-year-old made a winning debut at Leopardstown last June before chasing home Maybe in the Debutante Stakes at the Curragh and finishing fourth in the Prix Marcel Boussac at Longchamp.

She also holds an entry in the English Guineas, but Weld is planning to keep his charge at home and is hoping the current mild weather brings her forward.
