Headline roundup
EQUINOX!
Racing in the UK and Ireland wasn’t classic on Saturday but in the areas we lacked, Meydan’s action for the Dubai World Cup made up for it, chief of which was EQUINOX in the Group 1 Sheema Classic.
The four-year-old KITASAN BLACK (seven-time Japanese Group 1 winner) colt is now unbeaten in his last three starts having won the Tenno Sho and Arima Kinen in his two runs in late 2022 and he destroyed the Sheema Classic field by three lengths ON THE BRIDLE all while breaking the track record.
🇯🇵 Equinox 🇯🇵
What have we just seen!

Racing Twitter blew up on Saturday afternoon after this performance and rightly so - he’s beaten a 119-rated Irish Derby winner in WESTOVER and 121-rated MOSTAHDAF oh so easily and he could be very exciting if he travels over to Europe later this season.
🇯🇵 His name is Equinox

The murmurs under the surface are that it would be amazing to see him rock up to the Arc in October – he has done all of his winning on good or good to firm ground so soft ground at Longchamp may not be his gig, but as Nick Luck said yesterday, he does have a pedigree to give the world’s most famous flat race a go.
🗣️"There is Arc heritage there..."
@nickluck gives us his thoughts on Equinox's Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe prospects later in the year.
Is he the horse to finally land the holy grail for Japan?

We had FLIGHTLINE last year, this year is for EQUINOX. The future is bullish for world racing.
Moore Moore Moore
Ryan Moore's passport has been stamped a lot the last few days and he's not just racking up the air miles, he racking up them P's too.
Ryan Moore just picked up nearly £2m in prize-money this morning in Sydney and goes again tomorrow at @HKJC_Racing Derby meeting at Sha Tin. 💰
Beats doing the rounds at Wolverhampton tonight!

A man on fire, one of the largest prizes he picked up this weekend was on BROOME to win the Dubai Gold Cup. BROOME's first start at two miles since October 2020, Ryan Moore delivered him perfectly proving he is just simply one of the best flat jockeys the world has seen.
Ryan Moore. Time and time again.

The Royal Ascot winner swept past the favourite SISKANY to win by a neck providing Aidan O’Brien with his only winner in Meydan from his two runners.
🏇 Pure perfection from Ryan Moore as the globetrotting Broome, trained by Aidan O'Brien, sweeps aside the opposition in the Dubai Gold Cup in course record time.

Ryan Moore finished the weekend riding in Naas.
Ryan Moore won a $1million race, a $2million race and was second in a $6million race yesterday.
Today he rides at Naas - maximum purse €27,000.
That’s why he’s the best.

Curragh action
The Curragh took a fairly centre stage on Saturday for the start of the Irish turf season and it was newsletter NAP INSINUENDO who comfortably took the Group 3 Express Stakes by a 1.5 lengths.
A perfect start to the season for Insinuendo!
Willie McCreery's classy performer lands the Lodge Park Stud Irish EBF Park Express Stakes on her return to action at the @curraghrace and look set for loftier targets now 🏆

And to the delight of you lovely readers, we put her up at 15/8 before she went off at 10/11.
Wow huge 5 mins.
EQUINOX a beast. Lowered track record by 1 second at a canter lol.
INSUENDO for newsletter bolted up before that too. (Boom).
Newbury bumper won by Honeyballs as mentioned in newsletter preview. TD’s TOMMIE GUN so green and one to follow (big engine).

The form with EMILY UPJOHN, MOTHER EARTH, and ABOVE THE CURVE was good enough to get the job done on Saturday and back to Group 1 company is on the agenda for the four-year-old.
Insinuendo impressed in the Lodge Park Stud Irish EBF Park Express Stakes at @curraghrace today and Willie McCreery now has more Group 1 targets in mind for her.

35 minutes earlier, the British completed a successful raid of the Irish Lincolnshire as William Haggas’ LATTAM ran an incredible race to just get up on the line for Chris Hayes.
Get Jerry Hannon a glass of water! 🥤
🏇 A pulsating finish to the Paddy Power Irish Lincolnshire gives the commentator's vocal chords a good workout. Lattam snatches the spoils under @chrishayes24 for William Haggas.

The unexposed four-year-old found trouble in running and looked like he had no chance of winning having been stuck in the pack, however, he flew home at odds of 8/1 to sweep up the contest.
You take your Cheltenham, but we're having the Curragh!
William Haggas plunders the Irish Lincolnshire with his only runner of the day, Lattam.

Full bet on this lad at 2/1. He's progressive vs an exposed, badly bred field who look capped at 115 rating where. Breeding and Point form says this lad should be 125 + (has two half siblings >120 & 130) and can hose up today.
Any more bets will be posted on Twitter...but tbh having taken a lot from the Boat Race yesterday and been on a heater all week, I'm happy to sit back and smile at my bank.
