Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 20 Journalists Posted July 20 Putting an unplaced seasonal debut effort at Royal Ascot behind him on Sunday, Ballydoyle's Diego Velazquez (Frankel) proved that the seven-furlong trip of The Curragh's G2 Romanised Minstrel Stakes was well within his repertoire. Sent off the 11-8 favourite despite the Queen Anne no-show, last year's G2 Solonaway Stakes and G3 Meld Stakes winner made Ryan Moore work relatively early but gave what was required to score by a neck from the three-year-old East Hampton (Cracksman). “He had a tough comeback run and it didn't work out at Royal Ascot, but he showed a good attitude there and is a lovely horse,” his rider said. “He's an uncomplicated horse and there wasn't much pace, so I let him stride on. He tries hard and I'd like to think he'll come forward again.” Diego Velazquez Another winner at @curraghrace for Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore, who land the Group Two Romanised Minstrel Stakes @Ballydoyle | @coolmorestud pic.twitter.com/Ft4WSOPQve — Racing TV (@RacingTV) July 20, 2025 The post Diego Velazquez Back On Track In The Minstrel appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
