From Southwell to Newmarket

Saxon Warrior × Termagant (Gr.1 Moyglare Stud Stakes)

Padraig Dawn made an immediate impression on his debut, winning over seven furlongs at Southwell to give Charlie Pike the first victory of his training career. He followed up with a narrow second, beaten just a neck, in the Listed Burradon Stakes at Newcastle on All-Weather Finals day.

Two runs were enough to convince his connections. The colt was supplemented for the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket, and holds a St James’s Palace Stakes entry at Royal Ascot — among the season’s elite three-year-old milers.
