Kept waiting over three weeks for the re-emergence of Age of Kings (Ire) (Kingman {GB}–Turret Rocks {Ire}, by Fastnet Rock {Aus}) following his highly promising debut at Naas, the Irish racing faithful were able to revel in a second outing full of top-class potential on Wednesday as he became the fifth TDN Rising Star among Ballydoyle's current juvenile crop. Backed into 4-7 favouritism for The Curragh's six-furlong Holden Plant Rentals Irish EBF Race, the 1.1million gns Book 1 graduate was able to cruise in front under Ryan Moore before being asked to stretch approaching the final furlong. Responding generously, the son of Jim Bolger's G2 May Hill S. winner hit the line strong with four lengths to spare over New Image (GB) (Frankel {GB}), with News At Ten (GB) (Twilight Son {GB}) another 4 1/2 lengths away in third. Age of Kings was also providing his Banstead Manor-based sire with a 24th TDN Rising Star in the process.

Look at the latest 🚀 for @Ballydoyle.
