Starry Heavens was another to make all at the Curragh in the Irish EBF Median Sires Series Maiden.

The daughter of Mastercraftsman, making her fourth start, asserted over a furlong out and stayed on strongly to score by four and a quarter lengths in the hands of Shane Foley. Joseph O’Brien supplied the placed horses in Mount King and Rubio Draco

Winning trainer Jessica Harrington said: “It’s the first time we have managed to get her out and get to the front. She loves it.

“She is out of a sister to Alpha (Centauri) and enjoyed the mile.

“She goes on the easier ground. We might try and get a bit of black type with her and she will be a nice filly for next year.”
