Haggas eyes Dundalk for Executive Force William Haggas' Executive Force is among 17 entries for the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Star Appeal Stakes at Dundalk on Friday evening. Haggas did have the Sepoy colt in the Dewhurst until Monday's confirmation stage but the Newmarket handler feels that Group One would come too soon in his development. The 200,000gns purchase was an impressive two-and-a-quarter-length winner on his debut at Newbury. "Executive Force is not ready for the Dewhurst. I've put him in a Listed race at Dundalk on Friday and he might go there. There are not many options for him," said Haggas. Aidan O'Brien has entered Courage Under Fire, Leo Minor and Sportsmanship, while his Joseph may run Eagle Spirit and Thomas O'Malley. Other notable entries include Mick Halford's Ambassadorial, Ger Lyons' duo of King Electric and Territory, and Charlie Appleby's Timeless Flight.
