TOM Hogan will aim for back-to-back victories in the Minstrel Stakes with Gordon Lord Byron after he returned to form with a win at Tipperary on Thursday.

The eight-year-old has won Group 1 races in England, France and Australia but had been without a victory since claiming the Minstrel Stakes last July. However, he got back in the winning groove with a half-length success over Elleval in the Follow TipperaryRaces On Twitter Race, prompting Hogan to pinpoint the Curragh event on July 17 as a likely next port of call.
