Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted Saturday at 02:23 PM Journalists Share Posted Saturday at 02:23 PM Returning to the Curragh venue at which he made a remarkable debut last month, Ballydoyle's TDN Rising Star Jan Brueghel (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}–Devoted To You {Ire}, by Danehill Dancer {Ire}) had to endure his first fight to stretch his unbeaten record in Saturday's G3 Al Basti Equiworld Dubai International Stakes. What was left in the tank at the end of the 10-furlong contest after he had mastered the long-time leader Trustyourinstinct (Ire) (Churchill {Ire}) by a neck remains to be seen, but the manner in which the 8-13 favourite hit the line with ears pricked suggests there is an abundance to come. Ryan Moore had to cajole from some way out to get the eight-length maiden winner engaged in a tussle with that Joseph O'Brien trainee, but there was a sense of inevitability come the closing stages and ultimately Jan Brueghel had overcome understandable greenness and smart older horses to maintain his momentum.
