Sioux Nation’s Concorde Landed A New TDN Rising Star

Wait 5 sec.

The vibes surrounding Concorde Landed (Sioux Nation) ahead of Naas's five-furlong Saturday opener were particularly strong and Bond Thoroughbred's newcomer showed why with a five-length success to become a TDN Rising Star, Presented by Hagyard.Able to move from rear to the stands' rail with the minimum of effort, the Paddy Twomey-trained 13-8 favourite was in front passing two out and kept piling it on to dismiss Ballydoyle's Snowing (No Nay Never), a half-sister to the high-class Maljoom (Caravaggio) who had the benefit of experience. There was another 1 1/2 lengths back to the Robson De Aguiar-trained debutante Fly Smartly (Mehmas) in third.“She came from the breeze-ups, so she knew a bit more than ours normally do first time out,” jockey Billy Lee said of the €200,000 Tattersalls Ireland Breeze-Up purchase. “She was having a look in front and was quite raw, so it was a good performance. She has plenty of natural speed, but is fairly relaxed and should get six. She's going to York for either the Roses or the Lowther and is a very exciting filly.”Twomey added of the relative of a host of smart Cheveley Park runners including the Horris Hill winner Cupid's Glory (Pursuit Of Love), “It's rare you see Paddy Twomey training a five-length winner first-time out! A first-time out winner, full stop. She is a nice filly, but I didn't do a lot with her since the sale. She's come in, she's cantered, she's breezed a few times. She's not been anywhere. Billy just said that maybe she has a bit too much speed for the Lowther, but I think she'll be okay. It would be the perfect race for her.”“I don't really train first-time-out two-year-old winners that much, so it's very possible that I get them beaten but I think she's nice,” he added. “We have 50 two-year-olds–we actually have a very good bunch of two-year-olds, but she's nice.”Back in business bounces back from a no-show @corkracecourse last time with a no-nonsense triumph in the @IrishEBF_ Race @NaasRacecourseEddie Lynam's inmate was winning for an eighth time in 24 starts …. pic.twitter.com/v1CpseQeU9— Racing TV (@RacingTV) July 4, 2026The post Sioux Nation’s Concorde Landed A New TDN Rising Star appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
