Seisai scores at Listed level at Tipperary on Friday
Coolmore Stud's Gleneagles (Galileo) sired his 16th stakes winner on Friday when the Joseph O'Brien-trained Seisai (2 f ex Lillebonne by Danehill Dancer) won the Coolmore Stud Churchill Stakes (Listed, 7.5f) at Tipperary.
Taking the lead in the closing stages, the previously stakes placed filly kept on well to beat Tuwaiq (Elzaam) by a half length. Glengarra (Profitable) was another two and a quarter lengths further back in third.
Gleneagles, who has three crops of racing age, has sired seven Group Two winners and two Group Three winners.
Seisai - a smart prospect
