It was a familiar story at The Curragh on Saturday as Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore dominated the card's juvenile races with Ides Of March (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}–Nickname, by Scat Daddy) bringing up an afternoon treble for connections in the G3 Heider Family Stables Round Tower Stakes. Impressive over this six-furlong trip and track last month, the son of the GI Frizette Stakes heroine was able to ease to the front after the early stages and power clear from two out with impressive sectionals en route to a 3 1/4-length success from the filly Usdi Atohi (Ire) (Ten Sovereigns {Ire}) and reward 2-5 favourite backers.
