FRIDAY's Curragh card concluded with the 10-and-a-half-furlong Group 2 Coolmore Magna Grecia Irish EBF Mooresbridge Stakes for older horses and the line-up included Irish St Leger winner Search For A Song and also Latrobe, the Irish Derby hero in 2018.
Cracking return!

Leo De Fury could be a very decent four-year-old and is much the best in the Mooresbridge, more success in a golden spell for Shane Foley and @Jessica_Racing @curraghrace pic.twitter.com/VasNOoaP6B
They had no answer though to the deadly duo of Jessica Harrington and Shane Foley, who maintained their stunning week with another pattern success via Leo De Fury (6/1), who stormed clear in the final furlong to win by three lengths from Fleeting.
It was a ninth winner of the week for Foley and an eighth for Harrington ahead of Albigna’s tilt for Tattersalls Irish 1000 Guineas glory.
What an improver!

The six-year-old Bowerman has never been better and dominates in the Irish Lincolnshire for @WhelanRonan and @adomcguinness1 @curraghrace
Results ? https://t.co/glajGV55GR pic.twitter.com/roa8gpNfTQ
Ado McGuinness continues to thrive when the major handicap pots are on offer and he was at it again as the improving six-year-old Bowerman (5/1) bolted to a dominant victory in the Paddy Power Irish Lincolnshire, courtesy of a judicious ride by Ronan Whelan.
The €44,250 first prize will be very welcome for the Total Recall Racing Club, a group of 17 prison officers who have enjoyed many good days with the Lusk-based McGuinness.
