MARENGO WINS BERESFORD BATTLE

Battle Of Marengo could bid to give Aidan O'Brien a seventh triumph in the Racing Post Trophy at Doncaster after his victory in the Juddmonte Beresford Stakes at the Curragh.

Ballydoyle's juvenile has an encouraging profile, having built on a debut third with victories at Gowran and Leopardstown, so it was no surprise to see him sent off a prohibitive 4-9 favourite to beat three rivals on his Group-race debut.
VIZTORIA BLITZES CURRAGH RIVALS

The Curragh's Anglesey Lodge Equine Hospital Blenheim Stakes was turned into a procession by the hugely impressive Viztoria.

Eddie Lynam's filly had not been seen since winning by seven and a half lengths on her introduction at Naas in July and was the 5-2 favourite stepped up in class for what looked a warm Listed race.

Johnny Murtagh was happy to let the market leader bowl along at the head of affairs and once he asked her to quicken, the response was quite taking as she pulled right away to slam Snow Queen by seven and a half lengths.
PARK GLORY FOR MAGICAL DREAM

Aidan and Joseph O'Brien claimed the Group Three CL Weld Park Stakes at the Curragh with Magical Dream.

Outsider Wholelotofrosie took the seven-runner field along for the majority of the race before 100-30 chance Magical Dream took over with a little over a furlong to run.
