After saddling Marv Michael to win at Tramore yesterday, Henry de Bromhead gave the go ahead for Magical Zoe to head for the Ebor at York on Saturday.

Magical Zoe has won four times for the stable including in a Grade 3 mares' novices' hurdle at Down Royal and was last seen finishing a close third in a Group 3 on the Flat at Fairyhouse in July.

The trainer said: "Magical Zoe is in good form. She'll head for the Ebor next weekend and we'll see how she goes.

"She had a nice run at Fairyhouse on her last start."

Term Of Endearment has become a real stable star for the Knockeen-based trainer and after a productive spell this year that has seen her land a Group 3 in York and a Group 2 at Goodwood, she will bid for Group 1 glory in France.

"Term Of Endearment has come out of Goodwood really good, there is not a bother on her," de Bromhead said.

"She'll probably go for the race in France, the Prix de Royallieu (at ParisLongchamp in October)."
