Review naas 24th Sep

< Saxon Warrior lived up to the hype as he continued Aidan O'Brien's domination of the Juddmonte Beresford Stakes at Naas.

So impressive on his Curragh introduction, the 5-6 favourite tracked his stable companions Kew Gardens and Delano Roosevelt before being unleashed by Ryan Moore inside the final quarter-mile.

Little more than a length separated the quintet, but Saxon Warrior was just hitting top gear and strode away to beat Delano Roosevelt by two and a half lengths, giving O'Brien his 17th victory in the Group Two.< Quiet Reflection capped a great day for trainer Karl Burke as she bounced back to her best in the Renaissance Stakes.

Martin Harley needed a run two furlongs out on the 5-2 favourite but once the gap came, the dual Group One winner picked up leader Alphabet in a matter of strides and won going away by two and three-quarter lengths.

Her stable companion Ellthea (10-1) continued on her upward curve with a clear-cut success in the C.L. & M.F. Weld Park Stakes.

The recent Doncaster nursery winner, who only took her chance after heavy rain scuppered plans to run her at Ayr's abandoned Western Meeting, scooted along the inside to account for Sizzling by two and three-quarter lengths.

Her jockey Colm O'Donoghue also struck on Jessica Harrington's 100-30 favourite Pincheck in the Hospitality At Naas Racecourse Handicap.

There was further British success on the card when 10-1 shot Tylery Wonder led home Monsieur Joe for a Paul Midgley-trained one-two in the Joe McGrath Handicap.< Renneti (4-5 favourite) stamped his authority on the Loughbrown Stakes.

Willie Mullins' dual-purpose performer appears better than ever at the age of eight and having tracked the front-running Stars Over The Sea he went for home early in the straight and crossed the line with five lengths in hand.< Powersville (16-1) scooped the decent pot on offer in the Foran Equine Irish EBF Auction Race, while Mcmunigal (13-2) won the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.
