The Curragh holds the sole meeting in Ireland on Saturday afternoon and Sugar Island can continue Aidan O’Brien’s dominance of the juvenile season by taking the Group 3 Newtownanner Stud Irish EBF Stakes.
The filly, who is out of a full sister to the brilliant Minding, made her debut last month at this venue and won despite showing obvious signs of greenness. The form has taken a few knocks since but there was an unmistakable quality to the winner’s performance, and she is sure to be considerably better for the outing.
