Offaly Bred Horse Scoops Group Two Race At York Festival

Friday, 21 August 2020 09:34

Miss Amulet was first past the post at odds of 15/2.

An Offaly bred horse is now a group two race winner in the UK.

Miss Amulet picked up £42,000 in winning the Lowther stakes at York's Ebor festoval yesterday for trainer Ken Condon.

The two year old, bred in Rhode has now won 2 of her 5 career races.

After being a less than £8,000 purchase by connections, she's already more than repaid that investment and there could be more to come.

Next up for her could be the group one Cheveley Park Stakes over 6 furlongs at Newmarket.

Speaking after the race, Kildare based trainer Ken Condon said:

"We'll be looking at the Cheveley Park now, why not - let's see where she ends up, when these fillies are improving you never know.

"I've had runners in this race before so it's great to win it, it carries huge prestige.

👏🏻 Trainer @kencondonracing's fine season continues

Miss Amulet (Sir Prancealot) cost £7,500, but shows a cracking attitude to capture the G2 @SkyBet Lowther Stakes in the opener @yorkracecourse @the_doyler
