Darley’s Dubawi (Dubai Millennium) notched up stakes winner number 213 on Saturday when the Mark Johnston-trained Maydanny (5 g ex Attraction by Efisio) won the Doonside Cup (Listed, 1m2f) at Ayr. Bred by Floors Farming who bred and raced his multiple Group One winning dam, Maydanny was bought for 1,350,000gns at Book 1 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale in 2017 by Shadwell Estate Company. He is a half-brother to Group Two winner Elarqam (Frankel) and Group Three winner Fountain Of Youth (Oasis Dream) and his brother will be offered by Watership Down Stud at the forthcoming Tattersalls October Yearling Sale - Book 1.
A first win at stakes level for the ultra-tough MAYDANNY, who digs in deep to take the Listed Doonside Cup Stakes @ayrracecourse

37 for Declaration Of War
The Archie Watson-trained Nazanin (2 f ex Woodland Scene by Act One) became stakes winner number 37 for Declaration Of War (War Front) when the Blue Diamond Stud-bred filly got up in the final strides to beat Canonized (Acclamation) in the Firth Of Clyde Stakes (Gr 3, 6f) at Ayr on Saturday.
“Nazanin has been taking huge steps forward,” said winning jockey Hollie Doyle. ”In the Lowther last time the ground was very quick and I felt as though she didn’t let herself down. Today I let her use herself and she’s got through that ground lovely.
“She’s been highly tried on her last two runs so it’s always a bit worrying, you don’t know whether you’re over-facing them but we’ve always known she’s got the ability.”
Thrilling finish!

The Clive Cox trained 2yo colt made ground on the leader every stride to claim the victory! He was sold at the @GoffsUK Premier Yearling Sale last year. pic.twitter.com/OD9n2fI31a
