Crypto Force to Compete in Prix Ganay as Dallas Star Features in Epsom Derby Entry

The 2022 Beresford Stakes winner missed the whole of his three-year-old season and recently finished sixth in the Alleged Stakes at the Curragh, marking his first start since returning to Ireland to join Adrian Murray. Murray stated that the horse’s participation in the Ganay is still uncertain as they are currently considering their options. Murray expressed satisfaction with the horse’s performance at the Curragh but acknowledged that he may have been rusty due to the long break.

He also mentioned that there is no concrete plan at the moment and that they need to consult with Kia Joorabchian to determine if the horse will run again before the Derby. After the last run, they made the decision to enter the horse in the Derby, with the Irish Derby also being identified as a main target. Murray emphasized that the horse performed well and booked his spot effectively.
