    • Sunday, Curragh, post time: 16:10, DUBAI DUTY FREE IRISH DERBY-G1, €725,000, 3yo, c/f, 12f Field: Green Impact (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), Lambourn (Ire) (Australia {GB}), Lazy Griff (Ger) (Protectionist {Ger}), Pride Of Arras (Ire) (New Bay {GB}), Puppet Master (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), Serious Contender (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), Shackleton (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), Sir Dinadan (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), Tennessee Stud (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), Thrice (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}). TDN Verdict: There is nothing not to like about the chances of Lambourn completing the Derby double, with this track sure to suit even more than Epsom but past experience suggests this is no done deal. Tennessee Stud is one of those certain to enjoy this more conventional circuit, Green Impact comes here a fresh horse spared the stresses of the big tests so far and if Pride Of Arras comes back to his Dante form he poses a genuine danger to the favourite. That isn't even mentioning how much Lazy Griff will appreciate a stiffer stamina test than the Derby and the omnipresent threat from Lambourn's stablemates, which include the Listed Lingfield Derby Trial winner Puppet Master. Ryan Moore might not need to lead from the front, but as it worked so well for Wayne Lordan in the Blue Riband it could be a case of rinse and repeat. [Tom Frary]. Sunday, Saint-Cloud, France, post time: 17:30, GRAND PRIX DE SAINT-CLOUD-G1, €400,000, 4yo/up, 12fT Field: Calandagan (Ire) (Gleneagles {Ire}), Iresine (Fr) (Manduro {Ger}), Goliath (Ger) (Adlerflug {Ger}), Junko (GB) (Intello {Ger}), Aventure (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}). TDN Verdict: Francis Graffard saddles two leading contenders in this small-but-select field. Calandagan was outwitted by Jan Brueghel in Epsom's G1 Coronation Cup earlier in the month and bids for a Group 1 breakthrough having run second in all four prior starts at the highest level. His Resolute Racing-owned stablemate Goliath, winner of last year's G1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes, will head postward coming back off a confidence-boosting victory in ParisLongchamp's G3 La Coupe earlier this month. This stellar renewal also features Alain and Gerard Wertheimer's G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe and G1 Prix Vermeille runner-up Aventure and fellow Wertheimer homebred Junko, who has already saluted twice at the highest level. Dual Group 1 winner Iresine completes the quintet. [Sean Cronin]. Sunday, Saint-Cloud, France, post time: 14:55, PRIX EUGENE ADAM-G2, €130,000, 3yo, 10fT Field: Daryz (Fr) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), Parachutiste (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), Scorthy Champ (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), Dumonet (Ire) (Soldier Hollow {GB}), Bay City Roller (Ire) (New Bay {GB}), Sinileo (Ire) (Siyouni {Fr}). TDN Verdict: Aga Khan Studs homebred Daryz puts his unbeaten record on the line coming back off a wide-margin victory in this month's Listed Prix Ridgway. The operation last won this in 2015 with the G1 Grand Prix de Paris and G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe entry's half-brother Dariyan (Shamardal). Trainer Francis Graffard is also represented by G1 Prix du Jockey Club 10th Parachutiste. The strong overseas challenge includes last year's G2 Champagne Stakes winner Bay City Roller returning off a second to Opera Ballo, his first defeat in four, in last month's Listed Heron Stakes. He is joined by G1 Vincent O'Brien National Stakes hero Scorthy Champ, who is upped to 10 furlongs for the first time having finished unplaced in both G1 2000 Guineas and G1 Irish 2000 Guineas. Last month's Listed Derby du Midi winner Dumonet is not out of the reckoning while Sinileo will bid to provide Andre Fabre with a record-extending 15th win in the contest. [Sean Cronin].

    • With a strong turn of foot, Tom's Magic (Justify–Dixie Chicken, by Rahy) was tough down the lane to take the Tale of the Cat Stakes at Monmouth on Saturday. Bet down below even-money, the 3-year-old was content to let longshots show the way out of the chute and through the first turn. Heading for home, Tom's Magic gunned his engine and got down to business. The colt seized the lead and the rest in the final furlong was history. Outrunner (American Pharoah) was the runner-up. The final running time was 1:42.68. An Ontario-bred, the colt has the potential to be a contender for the King's Plate at Woodbine this summer. Lifetime Record: 5-3-1-0. Sales History: $200,000 '23 KEESEP. O-CJ Thoroughbreds and Mo Speed Racing; B-Sean Fitzhenry & Dorothy Fitzhenry (ON); T-Michael Stidham.     The post Justify’s Tom’s Magic Conjures Nice Score In Tale Of The Cat At Monmouth appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • LUSH LIPS (GB) (f, 3, Ten Sovereigns {Ire})–Lamyaa {GB}, by Arcano {Ire}) came from just off the pace Saturday to post an impressive win in the Tepin Stakes at Churchill Downs. Second in the both GIII Florida Oaks and the GII Edgewood Stakes in her last two starts, the 8-5 favorite left little doubt, coming out of the middle of the pack under Flavien Prat and swinging for home widest of the field to challenge. Longshot Ninth Island (Constitution) gave way at the eighth pole and it was all Lush Lips from there as the daughter of Ten Sovereigns won going away on the line. Lifetime Record: 8-3-3-0.

    • Erasing the La Troienne loss from everyone's minds, reigning Horse of the Year THORPEDO ANNA (f, 4, Fast Anna–Sataves, by Uncle Mo) got back in the winner's circle at Churchill Downs in Saturday's GII Fleur de Lis Stakes, a 'Win and You're In” for the GI Breeders' Cup Distaff where she will almost certainly look to defend her title from last year. Facing just four other horses, the 'TDN Rising Star' got off to a clean beginning and sat a cozy second just off Royal Spa (Violence) who handled the tempo through moderate fractions of :23.43 and :47.07. That pair opened up a gap back to the rest of the field with Thorpedo Anna always keeping the pressure on the leader, cruising up alongside midway around the far turn. Royal Spa couldn't go with her and settled for second as the 'Grizzly' came home under wraps, leading in a strung-out group with only Taxed (Collected) making up ground from out the rest of the pack late. Lifetime Record: Horse of the Year, Ch. 3-year-old Filly, MGISW, 14-11-2-0. O-Brookdale Racing, Inc., Edwards, Mark, Hicks, Judy B. and Magdalena Racing (Sherri McPeek); B-Judy Hicks; T-Kenneth G.
