Golden Horn, Gleneagles Slated to Finally Meet in Irish Champion The much anticipated matchup between star European miler GLENEAGLES (IRE) and fellow standout GOLDEN HORN (GB) appears set to finally take place Saturday in Leopardstown’s $1.33 million “Win and You’re In” QIPCO Irish Champion (GI), with an eight-horse field in place, and a berth in the Longines Breeders’ Cup Turf going to the winner. The Irish Champion is one of three Challenge races at Leopardstown and highlights a weekend that features 10 total “Win and You’re In” races, including the prestigious Ricoh Woodbine Mile (GI) Sunday. A rainy forecast for Friday has caused Leopardstown officials to move the Irish Champion to the outside course, and to start Saturday’s race about one hour earlier in the program. The connections of both Coolmore’s Gleneagles and Anthony Oppenheimer’s Golden Horn, the pair of 3-year-old standouts are expected to meet in the 1 ¼-mile race after the latter withdrew from a potential clash in the “Win and You’re In” Juddmonte International (GI) at York August 19 due to the soft turf.

  • Postponed Features Among 39 Entries for the King George VI & Queen
    Ascot Racecourse Media Release for immediate release, Wednesday, June 8, 2016 Postponed features among 39 entries for the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO) Last year's winner Postponed headlines 39 top-class entries for the £1.15-million Group One King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO) at Ascot on Saturday, July 23, details of which are revealed today. The number of entries this year, which include 14 three-year-olds, is significantly up for the summer showpiece of the European Flat season, with 31 put forward in 2015, 35 in 2014 and 29 in 2013. Five-year-old Postponed is bidding to become only the third dual winner of Ascot's 12- furlong flagship race, following on from Swain (1997 & 1998) and Dahlia (1973 & 1974). Formerly trained by Luca Cumani, the Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum-owned Postponed is unbeaten in three starts this year for new handler Roger Varian and was last seen out when defeating Found (Aidan O'Brien) impressively by four and a half lengths in the Group One Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Cup (Sponsored by Investec) at Epsom Downs on June 4. Investec Derby hero Harzand (Dermot Weld) headlines 14 entries from Ireland. The son of Sea The Stars could bid to become the 13th colt to complete the Derby/King George double in the same season and the first since Galileo in 2001. Aidan O'Brien, Ireland's champion Flat trainer, accounts for 12 entries in total, the most of any handler. His possibles, besides Found, include Minding, who took her Group One tally to four in the British Classic, the Investec Oaks, at Epsom Downs on Saturday, June 4, Gold Cup favourite Order Of St George, globe-trotting dual Group One winner Highland Reel and impressive French 2,000 Guineas victor The Gurkha.

Staff Profile: Head Lad Flat Focus: The Derby Photos Of The Month Trainer Talk At this time of year, the racing world unleashes a collective desire to pinpoint the likely stars of the summer. It is only natural to want to celebrate the very best, to consider that we might be in the midst of greatness, but sometimes this can be un- healthy, with good or very good horses afforded the status of exceptional in order to fill a void left by those who captured our imagination most of all. True excellence is devalued if we consider every Classic winner a great, and we must be careful of not falling into this trap over the next few months. While we may still stumble upon a 125-plus horse to headline the campaign, trials season has suggested otherwise, with the markets for both Guineas, the Derby and the Oaks given a real shakeup as many of last year’s stellar two-year-olds failed to live up to their billing.

  • American-Trained Miss Temple City Has Royal Ascot in Her Sights for Third Time
    Ascot Racecourse Media Release for immediate release, Wednesday, May 3, 2017 American-trained Miss Temple City has Royal Ascot in her sights for third time Excellent entries are unveiled today for the five Group Two contests for three-year-olds and upwards at Royal Ascot, which is staged from Tuesday, June 20 through to Saturday, June 24. Miss Temple City (Graham Motion USA) has performed very well at Royal Ascot for the past two years, finishing fourth, beaten two lengths, in the G1 Coronation Stakes in 2015 and occupying the same position again last year when going down by just over three lengths in the G2 Duke of Cambridge Stakes, both over a mile on turf. Now a five-year-old, Miss Temple City went on to win G1 contests at Keeneland (Shadwell Turf Mile) and Del Mar (Matriarch Stakes) following her latest fine effort at Royal Ascot in 2016, adding to her previous G1 success in the Maker’s 46 Mile Stakes at Keeneland in the spring of last year. The mare holds entries this time around in both the G1 Queen Anne Stakes on the opening day Tuesday, June 20, and the £175,000 G2 Duke of Cambridge Stakes on Wednesday, June 21, for which she is one of 40 engaged – the second highest level of entries ever for the race. Trainer Graham Motion is looking forward to seeing how the daughter of Temple City performs this Saturday, May 6, when she makes her seasonal debut in the G2 Churchill Downs Distaff Turf Mile at the Kentucky track.
