McGuinness team looking forward to Breeders' Cup adventure Ado McGuinness was amongst the winners at Dundalk last night with Exquisite Acclaim and earlier in the day the yard's Go Athletico finished third in a Group 3 sprint at Chantilly. Having saddled the yard's Dundalk winner, assistant trainer Stephen Thorne gave an update on Tiger Belle, herself a Group 3 winner at Longchamp in September and on course for the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Santa Anita next Friday. "We will be holding our breath before the draw next week! We need a low draw, that will be crucial," said Thorne. "Cristian Demuro is booked to ride her, he won on her in France. "She has got great gate-speed, we are not concerned about that. "She is in the main body of the field which is what we wanted, we were touch and go during the week whether we would get in or not. We are there now. "She travels out tomorrow (Saturday) and she is in really good nick. We are very happy with her last couple of gallops and we are all systems go. "Mike and Jules Iavarone, American-based clients, have bought into the filly to race with us next week. "We are looking forward to next week." Additional reporting by Michael Graham
