Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 1, 2018 Journalists Share Posted August 1, 2018 Mark Johnston has supplemented Tuesday’s impressive G2 Qatar Vintage S. winner Dark Vision (Ire) (Dream Ahead) for the G1 Goffs Vincent O’Brien National S. at The Curragh next month. The juvenile has been a surprise package this year, unbeaten now in three starts since being purchased by his trainer for 15,000 gns at Tattersalls Book 2 last autumn and a top level assignment would appear the logical next move for the imposing colt. “There was a second entry stage so we had a great debate whether to enter this morning as it was £8,000 to supplement this morning or it was £35,000 to supplement at the five-day stage. I was overruled by Charlie and Deirdre so he is in the National Stakes,” Johnston said on Wednesday. Dark Vision is owned by the Kingsley Park 10 who now have a valuable commodity on their hands and one that is likely to be the subject of offers of purchase. “The phone hasn’t stopped ringing,” Johnston admitted. “Something may happen on that score, we will have to wait and see, but, in the meantime, I’ve just got to carry on as business as usual, hence I made the National Stakes entry for him.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
