Joseph O'Brien-trained Magnanimous wins Glencairn Stakes at Leopardstown
The Joseph O'Brien-trained Magnanimous (3 c ex Lillebonne by Danehill Dancer) won Wednesday's Glencairn Stakes (Listed, 1m) at Leopardstown to become the ninth stakes winner for his Tally-Ho Stud-based sire Mehmas (Acclamation).
Under Shane Cross, Magnanimous pulled clear to score by two lengths from Fourhometwo (Ajaya) with another length and a quarter back to favourite Sinawann (Kingman) in third.
Mehmas' stakes winners include Group 1 winner Supremacy and he now has two crops of racing age. Crowned champion first season sire in Europe last year, his progeny also include ten stakes place getters.
MAGNANIMOUS puts in a classy performance to win the Listed Glencairn Stakes @LeopardstownRC for @JosephOBrien2
