Keeneland Phoenix Stakes Day at the Curragh

Keeneland Phoenix Stakes Day at the Curragh

Advertise is entered to run in the prestigious Keeneland Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh this Sunday 12th August. 

Advertise will attempt to give owners Phoenix Thoroughbred Ltd their first major success in Ireland. 

Trained in Britain by Martyn Meade, the son of Showcasing is one of fourteen horses remaining in the Group 1 contest following the entry stage.

The winner of the Group 2 July Stakes at Newmarket last month is likely to face a very strong challenge from Aidan O’Brien, who has won the race an unprecedented sixteen times. The champion trainer has left ten horses in the race including recent Goodwood winner Land Force, Sergei Prokofiev, Van Beethoven, So Perfect and Fairyland.

The Jessica Harrington trained pair of Klute and Indigo Balance, together with Mia Mento trained by Tom Mullins also feature amongst the entries.

St Patrick's Day, Gordon Lord Byron, Urban Beat, Intelligence Cross and Ardhoomey are among the eighteen entries remaining in the Group 3 Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club Phoenix Sprint.

Racing on Sunday will get underway at 1.55pm with a seven race card. Gates open at 12 noon.
