Riven Light one to note in 'Ragusa'
Fourteen have been declared for the Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Ragusa' Handicap, the feature race on the opening day of the Derby Festival at the Curragh. Fri 30th Jun
That's the third Group 1 winner out of the mare. It's amazing,. She toughed it out and Ryan's filly ran a stormer as well. Seamie's filly ran well and so did Wayne's filly. They'll all step up when they go further than a mile, you'd imagine. Donnacha gave her a great ride. He was delighted to be on Magical. In all fairness they never question anything and that was just the way it happened. When the other filly didn't run Ryan got on Magical. It's strange the way things happen. I wanted to run Clemmie but I promised if heavy came into the description we wouldn't run. I was mad to run her. With the view to going to Newmarket and going to the Arc weekend she needed to run. I couldn't do it to her in the heavy ground as she's a real good ground filly. She might have been okay but then heavy came into it. We would have run on soft. They stay well those fillies (that ran) and are all seven furlong or mile fillies. I wouldn't shorten any of them up. They would fillies for the Boussac and the Fillies Mile while Clemmie could go for the Cheveley Park.

She's lovely and came forward well again.You would have to be delighted with that, and Ryan is very happy with her,. She could go for the Debutante next. I'd say Clemmie will go straight for the Moyglare, and September might go to the Debutante on the way (to the Moyglare). She picked them up very easily. Donnacha loved her the first day and the second time, and I'd say she has jumped again.
