Danehill Dancer Adds Irish Black-Type

Also in Ireland overnight, former Coolmore shuttler Danehill Dancer (Danehill-Mira Adonde, by Sharpen Up) added a black-type success (& 122nd individual stakes-winner world-wide) when 4YO mare Unaccompanied (Danehill Dancer-Legend Has It, by Sadler's Wells) scored a 2.5-lengths victory in the €40,000 (A$55,000) Listed Alleged Stakes (10 furlongs) for 4YOs & up at The Curragh. Unaccompanied (ridden by Pat Smullen for trainer Dermot Weld) defeated 5YO mare Cilium (War Chant-Venturi, by Danehill Dancer) & favoured 4YO entire St Nicholas Abbey (Montjeu-Leaping Water, by Sure Blade). Unaccompanied now has 5 wins & a runner-up from 8 starts.
