Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 14, 2024 Journalists Posted September 14, 2024 Newtown Anner Stud's Chantez (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}–Lady Lara {Ire}, by Excellent Art {GB}) fired the opening salvo on Irish Champions Weekend with a dominant, albeit wayward, victory in Saturday's Listed Ballylinch Stud Irish EBF Ingabelle Stakes at Leopardstown. The 220,000gns October Book 1 graduate, who posted a three-length maiden victory over the same seven-furlong strip in her second outing last month, broke well from an outer gate and tracked the leaders in third through halfway. Taking closer order off the home turn, the 6-5 favourite quickened to the fore approaching the final furlong and kept on strongly, despite rolling around in front, to prevail by 3/4-of-a-length from Garden Of Eden (Ire) (Saxon Warrior {Jpn}). The runner-up's Aidan O'Brien-trained stablemate and 'TDN Rising Star' Bubbling (Ire) (No Nay Never) ran on well to finish a head adrift in third. Smart filly!
