19th Stakes-Winner for No Nay Never

Tara Madgwick - Monday October 14
The mighty Pinatubo denied exciting young sire No Nay Never (USA) another Group I winner over the weekend when his classy colts Arizona and Wichita placed in the Group I Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket, but the sire was quick to add another new stakes-winner to his tally on Sunday with Tango taking out the Listed Legacy Stakes at the Curragh.

No Nay NeverTrained by Aidan O'Brien and ridden by his son Donnacha, Tango coasted clear to win the six furlong sprint by six lengths confirming the potential she has shown this season when contesting several Group I and Group II races.

Although not placing in them, she was competitive and most recently was fourth in the Group I Cheveley Park Stakes before breaking back to winning form with this performance.

"She is a smart filly and Donnacha [O'Brien] said he was very impressed by here. We took the headgear off her and that was the sweetest she has ever been. She was always comfortable and she could go to the Breeders Cup now," said Aidan O'Brien.

Bought for 200,000 guineas at the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale, Tango is the best of three winners from Galileo mare Idle Chatter, a half-sister to stakes-winner Vol de Nuit.

Tango is the 19th stakes-winner for Scat Daddy's first son to stud in No Na Nay Never, whose first two crops have so far produced 11.6% stakes-winners to runners.

He stands at Coolmore Australia this spring at a fee of $44,000.
