McEvoy’s Irish Raider is set to make a big splash in the upcoming Tancred Stakes, the premier Group 1 race of the Australian flat racing season. The horse, owned by Australian trainer Tony McEvoy, is a four-year-old gelding with an impressive record of success in Irish racing.
McEvoy’s Irish Raider has been in top form this season, with wins in the Irish St. Leger and the Irish Derby. He also finished second in the Irish Champion Stakes and third in the Irish 2000 Guineas. His performances have been so impressive that he has been made the favorite for the Tancred Stakes, which will be held at Rosehill Racecourse on April 13th.
McEvoy’s Irish Raider is a powerful and well-balanced horse, with a strong turn of foot and a good turn of speed. He is known for his ability to stay strong in the stretch, and his jockey, Hugh Bowman, believes he has what it takes to win the Tancred Stakes. “He’s a very talented horse and I’m confident he can handle the distance and the competition,” said Bowman.
McEvoy’s Irish Raider will face stiff competition in the Tancred Stakes, with several other top horses in the field. The race will also feature two other horses from McEvoy’s stable, including last year’s winner, Hartnell. However, McEvoy’s Irish Raider is expected to be the one to beat.
The Tancred Stakes is one of the most prestigious races in Australia, and McEvoy’s Irish Raider is sure to draw a large crowd. It will be an exciting race, and all eyes will be on McEvoy’s Irish Raider as he looks to make history and become the first Irish-bred horse to win the Tancred Stakes.
