Mad About You is the first produce of the very smart 2002 G2 Ribblesdale S. winner and G1 Prix de l’Opera winner Irresistible Jewel and was allowed to start at 8-1 in this heat stacked with promising newcomers. Breaking well to raced in fourth early, the homebred quickened to lead with 1½ furlongs remaining and needed only one tap with Pat Smullen’s whip to comfortably hold Solas Na Greine (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) by a length. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, Eu13,020.
