WEEKEND RACING REVIEW | DUBAI, CURRAGH, DONCASTER & KEMPTON

Our panel of Emmet Kennedy, Adam Mills and former jockey Georgia Cox review the biggest races from the weekend across the Curragh, Meydan, Doncaster and Kempton, analysing the key performances, shocks and future stars.

It was a profitable weekend for the team, with Georgia Cox landing a 33/1 winning NAP with Fairy Glen in the Dubai Turf, while Adam Mills tipped Magnitude at 9/1 to win the Dubai World Cup.

BIG WINNERS & TALKING POINTS

Calandagan and Ombudsman both delivered in their Group 1 assignments, while attention quickly turns to the major stories behind the results.

We begin at the Curragh, where Big Gossey landed back-to-back renewals of the 1xBet.ie Supports Irish Racing Gladness Stakes (Listed Race), but the biggest talking point was the defeat of Albert Einstein, whose 2000 Guineas hopes were ended on his seasonal return.

The panel debate his future, including whether a move to the sprinting division could unlock his talent.

FUTURE STARS & CLASSIC PROSPECTS

We also assess the emerging talent from the weekend:

• Shaihaan, winner of the Final Furlong Podcast At 1xBet.ie Maiden (1m2f)
• Lewis Carroll, who impressed in the 1xBet.ie Proud Supporters Of Irish Racing Maiden (7f) and was described as a potential Group performer by Aidan O’Brien
• Erdenali, a striking debut winner at Saint-Cloud for Francis-Henri Graffard and the Aga Khan Studs

UK & IRISH ACTION

• Docklands impresses in the Doncaster Mile Stakes (Listed Race)
