Dermot Farrington Tattersalls Book 1 purchase Eminent received quotes for next year’s Qipco 2000 Guineas after becoming the latest progeny of the mighty Frankel to taste victory in the John Banks Renault Cambridge EBF Stallions Maiden Stakes at Newmarket on Thursday.

Although charting a wide path for much of the journey, the 6-1 shot travelled strongly into contention under title-chasing Jim Crowley before pulling impressively clear inside the final quarter of a mile, claiming victory by two and three-quarter lengths.

Her winning half-siblings are headed by last season’s Gr.1 Pretty Polly Stakes victrix Diamondsandrubies (Fastnet Rock), the Gr.3-placed Born To Be King (Storm Cat) and the Listed-placed How High The Moon (Fastnet Rock)….
