At present, there seems to be no limit to the collective achievements of Aidan O'Brien's 2-year-olds and in particular the fillies in that category and it was the Niarchos colour-bearer Dreamy (Ire) (American Pharoah–Tapestry {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}) who provided further strength in depth in Saturday's G3 Newtownanner Stud Irish EBF Stakes at The Curragh. Off the mark on debut at the Goodwood Festival last month, the daughter of the G1 Yorkshire Oaks heroine was placed behind the leading pair early by Ryan Moore. Cajoled to the front a furlong out, the 6-5 favourite readily asserted to score by 1 1/2 lengths from Fiery Lucy (GB) (Without Parole {GB}), whose form links in with another Ballydoyle starlet in Heavens Gate (Ire) (Churchill {Ire}).
Still unbeaten ✊
