Sat 15 May 2021
Poetic Flare goes for the second leg of what could be a remarkable Guineas treble at ParisLongchamp on Sunday.
The three-year-old emulated his sire Dawn Approach in winning the Qipco 2000 Guineas at Newmarket for trainer Jim Bolger and he turns out just a fortnight later for the French equivalent – the Emirates Poule d’Essai des Poulains.
Bolger is hoping his exciting colt can double his Classic tally before potentially bidding for a hat-trick in the Tattersalls Irish 2,000 Guineas next weekend.
“He’s come of Newmarket well,” said the Coolcullen handler.
