Profitable and Time Test sire new stakes winners and Haunui shuttler Ribchester adds a new winner
Two for Profitable
Head Mistress (2 f ex Rag And Bone by Street Cry) became the second stakes winner for Darley's first season sire Profitable (Invincible Spirit) when she won Friday's Curragh Stakes (Listed). The Ger Lyons-trained filly took the lead in the closing stages to defeat Loveday (Bungle Inthejungle) by a half length and is now unbeaten in two career starts. Profitable's first stakes winner was the Royal Ascot winner Quick Suzy who won the Queen Mary Stakes (Gr 1, 5f) and his first crop has yielded 16 winners to date. He sits behind Cotai Glory (Exceed And Excel) in the leading first season sires table in Europe by winners.
Two from two!
