Lake Victoria Wins Irish 1,000 Guineas at Curragh

News summary

Lake Victoria, trained by Aidan O’Brien and ridden by Ryan Moore, showcased a spectacular return to form by winning the Tattersalls Irish 1,000 Guineas at the Curragh, rebounding from a sixth-place finish in the English 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket. The Frankel filly, unbeaten as a two-year-old with multiple Group One victories including the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf, demonstrated a strong finish to secure a comfortable two-and-a-quarter-length victory over 50-1 outsider California Dreamer. O’Brien emphasized that Lake Victoria’s preparation for Newmarket was rushed, and she has since improved significantly, fulfilling expectations at the Irish equivalent. The victory marked an important milestone for O’Brien, who has won the Irish 1,000 Guineas a record 10 times but had been winless since 2021. The field included notable competitors such as Flight and Simmering, who challenged Lake Victoria in England, and other promising fillies like Swelter and Exactly, both showing potential in recent stakes. Lake Victoria’s win underlines her status as a leading filly of her generation and a key figure in Coolmore’s elite stable.
