BLUE Bolt, a daughter of Darley’s Kildangan Stud-based Blue Point (Shamardal), rose to the highest level last Friday when she cosily won the Group 1 Tattersalls Sceptre Sessions Falmouth Stakes over a mile at Newmarket. The Andrew Balding-trained and Juddmonte-owned four-year-old was always going well and wasn’t hard pressed to beat the four-time Group 1 winner Precise by two lengths.

From nine career starts, Blue Bolt has now won six races and been runner-up twice, netting more than €630,000 in winnings. Unraced at two, she made an inauspicious start to her racing career when fifth of nine in a seven-furlong maiden at Southwell in April, 2025. She was stepped up to a mile after that, a trip she has contested eight times since, and quickly ran up a sequence of three wins, culminating with a listed success at Sandown.
