Nick that Clicks Delivers New Stakes-Winner

Tara Madgwick - Sunday August 1

The Fastnet Rock x Galileo nick is one of the best there is and it produced a new stakes-winner in France overnight when the Coolmore owned filly Joie de Soir captured the Listed Grand Prix de Clairefontaine – Prix Ferme Saint-Simeon (1m4f).

The Andre Fabre trained filly was a winner on debut at Deauville last year and was second on her seasonal return last month.

She raced clear for an easy three length win becoming the 176th stakes-winner for champion sire Fastnet Rock.
