Siskin | Racing Post

G2 Coventry S. winner Arizona (Ire) (No Nay Never) was not among the final entries for Friday's G1 Keeneland Phoenix S. when the field for the six-furlong contest at the The Curragh was drawn on Wednesday.

The quintet standing their ground is headed by Juddmonte's unbeaten homebred Siskin (First Defence). The Ger Lyons trainee won the Listed Marble Hill S. at second asking over this course and distance on May 24 before adding the G2 Railway S. over the same on June 29. He is reopposed by the Railway second and 'TDN Rising Star' Monarch of Egypt (American Pharoah). He is one of three trained by Aidan O'Brien, who also fields the G2 July S. winner Royal Lytham (Ire) (Gleneagles {Ire}) and the maiden winner Mount Fuji (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}). The field is completed by John Joseph Murphy's July 26 maiden winner Think Big (Ire) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}).
