A no brainer - by the 2000 Guineas Winner MAGNA GRECIA 

Over the weekend, we received a phone call from William Knight to recommend a 2-year-old colt that has been pleasing him at home, a son of the 2000 Guineas winner Magna Grecia. William has been taken by this colt’s attitude throughout the Spring and just how comfortably he’s going about his work at home.

He is a lovely stamp of an individual, who covers the ground with ease and possesses the size and substance to progress throughout his two year old career and beyond. William has started to turn the screw with him now and he’s liking what he’s showing him, so he was confident in picking up the phone to ourselves to recommend him.

William will be keeping a quarter share in the horse himself such is his belief in him and he describes him as a horse who should be ready to debut over 6 furlongs in less than a month’s time before looking at stepping up in distance as the season progresses, eventually operating over trips around a mile.

 Another fantastic bonus, he qualifies for a €10,000 'IRE' bonus, should he win a qualifying maiden or novice Stakes race in 2025. You can read more about how it works, here: https://www.itm.ie/Buying/Sales-Incentives/IRE-Incentive
