JONNY Steele won the EI90 at Tullymurry last Saturday on a catch ride, Sharon Madine’s former track performer Miguel Angel who was having his second EI start, but a glance at this bay’s racing record only tells you half of his story.

The 2010 son of Enrique was purchased for €25,000 at Arqana’s autumn sale in his native France as yearling by bloodstock agent Harold Kirk on behalf of trainer Willie Mullins. His dam, Yolaine (by Astarabad), who won six races over jumps herself, comes from the family of Golden Silver (the winner of 13 races, 11 for Mullins) and the Kilbarry Lodge Stud-based stallion Diamond Boy.
