City Of Memphis Continues Her Progression At The Curragh

Wait 5 sec.

Relatively unexposed in the competitive line-up for Sunday's G2 Lanwades Stud Stakes at The Curragh, the Zinlo Syndicate's City Of Memphis (Sioux Nation) stamped her class on the mile test to continue her upward trajectory.Beaten only once in her career so far when fifth in the Irish 1,000 Guineas on this card 12 months ago, last month's G3 Mutamakina Stakes winner was the subject of support as the 2-1 joint-favourite and travelled easily under cover early.Launched by Billy Lee to subdue Carolina Jetstream (Pinatubo) inside the final furlong, the a €370,000 2024 Tattersalls Ireland Breeze-Up topper asserted to score by a length, with the unlucky Stateira (Persian King) half a length further back in third.“I gave her the time and turned her out at the end of last season, which is something I rarely do,” trainer Paddy Twomey said. “She's had three quick runs, so I don't think going to Ascot would be a good idea. She could go for either the Maurice de Gheest and the Rothschild in France.” City Of Memphis A hat-trick of wins this season for the progressive filly under Billy Lee for @ptwomeyracing @Lanwades | @curraghrace pic.twitter.com/xGPJwMokLx— Racing TV (@RacingTV) May 24, 2026The post City Of Memphis Continues Her Progression At The Curragh appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
