IT was a weekend and a half for Darley stallions, with classic victories at the Curragh for Blue Point (Shamardal) and Too Darn Hot (Dubawi) among the highlights.

Throw in a Group 1 win in Hong Kong for Rebel’s Romance (Dubawi), a German classic win for Darnation (Too Darn Hot) and a Group 2 victory for Inisherin (Shamardal), and you get a real sense of how good the weekend was.
