Sent off the 15-8 favorite, Final Frontier (Ire) broke professionally and enjoyed a perfect tow under cover in fifth throughout the early stages. Working his way to the lead with a furlong remaining, the €37,000 Goffs Orby purchase drew away to register an impressive 4 1/2-length score from Aspar (Ire) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}). Final Frontier becomes the third winner for his first-season sire (by Diktat {GB}). “He's entered in a few races, including the [Sept. 13] G1 National S., but we'll let the dust settle until later in the day and see what happens,� trainer Jessie Harrington explained. “He seemed to stay that six furlongs very well.� Harrington won the National S. in 2010 with Pathfork (Distorted Humor).
