Joseph O'Brien notched up win number 120 of a record breaking year for the Champion Jockey elect when taking the opening Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Fillies Maiden at The Curragh today on Dance With Another trained by his father Aidan O'Brien.

By Danehill Dancer and out of triple Classic placed Quarter Moon, Dance With Another raced prominently throughout and stayed on well inside the final furlong to comfortably defeat Achnaha

The mile event was the first of five maiden races at the venue for its closing fixture of the year and afterwards O'Brien Senior stated “she (Dance With Another) is progressing with her runs and has been coming on. When she got to the front she just veered around a bit though and Joseph said she probably wants to get there later; her dam was a bit like that also.

“She probably won't run again this year but we'll start her off early next year. She'll stay well and should handle a dig in the ground.”
