Media Release - Monday July 6

With another treble of winners taking his tally to thirteen for the week, leading young sire Charm Spirit continues on his rich vein of winning form.

Invincible Spirit’s highest earning son has fired out winners internationally and began the week siring impressive stakes winning 2YO Time Scale at Newmarket to maintain his lead on Europe’s 2020 Third Crop Sire table by individual winners. On the same table, Charm Spirit also holds second position by prizemoney won to Kingman another son of champion sire Invincible Spirit.

In Europe, the Aga Khan Studs continued their promising run of successful homebred’s by Charm Spirit with their latest winner coming at Naas in Ireland where 3YO filly Kassaba scored convincingly over 1600m following on from their previous week’s French debut winner Vardani.

Earlier on the Naas card it was the turn of Charm Spirit’s impressive 2YO son Turbo Spirit, who looked very promising when racing away from his opposition to win by 3 lengths over 1200m.
