Settled on the rail in around fifth position by Christophe Soumillon with Midterm (Galileo) for company and being tracked by the Gr.1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe heroine Found (Galileo), he sliced through the field the straight and showed “He’s a super horse.

The Aidan O’Brien-trained daughter of Galileo was B. (Ire) 2006 - Noverre - Marie Rheinberg sent off as hot favourite under Ryan Moore as she stepped back to a mile for the first time since the Guineas. She broke well on the far side and followed the pacesetter Barchan (War Front), who is trained by Roger Varian for Godolphin. He was attacked on either side by the Gr.1 Prix Jacques Le Marois winner and fellow Godolphin runner Ribchester (Iffraaj) and the filly entering the final furlong and, as soon as the latter hit the front, she stayed on gamely to win by half a length from that rival, with Lightning Spear (Pivotal) a length away in third. The victory was the first on British Champions Day for Moore and it gave O’Brien his 21st Gr.1 win this year. She has now won eight of her twelve starts and been placed in all the others. Her previous Gr.1 wins this year were the 1,000 Guineas, the Oaks, the Pretty Polly Stakes and the Nassau Stakes, and she was third behind Almanzor and Found in the Gr.1 Irish Champions Stakes on her last start. O’Brien said: “I can’t say enough about her. I’d imagine that would be it now for her for the rest of the year. The plan was to come here and try and win, and maybe the lads will now bring her back to race again next year. They’ll sit down and talk about that now, but hopefully she can race again. She’s an incredible filly. A filly who can get a mile and a half, and then go and do that over this sort of trip is very special.” Bred by Orpendale, Chelston and Wynatt, she is the second foal of the Gr.1 Coronation Stakes and Gr.1 Matron Stakes winner Lillie Langtry (Danehill Dancer), whose first is last season’s Irish PROVEN CLASSIC SIRE Gr.3 winner Kissed By Angels and whose third, two-year-old How, has been placed in three maidens and was last seen Sire of 2 CLASSIC winners finishing sixth in the Gr.3 Princess Margaret Stakes at Ascot.

Ridden by Frankie Dettori, she tracked the pacesetter Pretty Perfect (Galileo) and took it up in the final furlong. She showed an excellent turn of foot to pull an impressive four lengths clear of the dual Gr.1 winner Speedy Boarding (Shamardal) and Queen’s Trust (Dansili), who were split by a neck on the line.

  • Heart Leads Redvers to Sea the Stars Colt
    WEDNESDAY, 23 OCTOBER 2019 SMULLEN: PROMOTION OF THE SPORT IS KEY HEART LEADS REDVERS TO By Pat Smullen SEA THE STARS COLT Oisin Murphy didn't end up with a big winner on Saturday but he's had a big year and that is the important thing. On Saturday I was thinking back to the work rate he has put in this year. He has ridden all over, travelling by plane, by helicopter, however he could get there to ride horses at two different meetings in a day, wherever they may be. His work ethic is something that needs to be applauded--that's what you need to do to be champion jockey. Oisin is not only an excellent rider but he is great for the game. He promotes our industry extremely well and I hope he does so for many years to come. I must admit, earlier in the year I was hoping that Danny Tudhope would be able to pull it off as the work that Danny has to put in to maintain his weight is phenomenal, and nobody sees that behind the scenes, but it wasn't to be.
