FALLEN ANGEL bounces back for Tattersalls Irish 1,000 Guineas glory

Fallen Angel bounced back from Newmarket disappointment to provide trainer Karl Burke with a second Classic success in the space of an hour in the 2024 Tattersalls Irish 1,000 Guineas at The Curragh. A Group One winner at the Kildare track in last season’s Moyglare Stud Stakes, the daughter of Too Darn Hot finished only eighth as favourite for the 1000 Guineas three weeks ago, but showed her true colours on Irish soil just 45 minutes after stablemate Darnation had won the German 1000 Guineas in Dusseldorf. Fallen Angel was the 11-4 market leader to reward those who kept the faith and after a smart start raced on the pace from the off in the hands of Danny Tudhope. The challengers were stacked up in behind entering the final three furlongs, but Burke’s grey found another gear once asked to do so and was well on top as she passed the post with two and three-quarter lengths in hand over the previously unbeaten A Lilac Rolla, with Opera Singer also running with credit in third on her first start since her scintillating display in the Prix Marcel Boussac in October. #horseracing #curragh Must-see compilations and best bits ➡️ Greatest Hits!
