Promising two-year-old Dickiedooda, whose dam So Dandy was sired by the now Avontuur based Oratorio, made it two wins from three starts when she won the Listed Coolmore Caravaggio Tipperary Stakes at Cork on Sunday.

The daughter of Starspangledbanner had beaten 13/8 favourite Grammata by 1.25L when winning on the pair’s respective debuts at the Curragh in June and confirmed that form, almost identically, when beating Grammata by 1.75L.
Afterwards Foley, who leads nearest Championship-pursuer Colin Keane by 12 winners, stated “I thought she would confirm form with Grammata as the ground was very dead at Ascot and the quicker the ground the better for her.
She has improved even from Ascot and has grown. She is an exciting fast filly, is by a very good stallion and I think getting six furlongs will be no problem in time.”

The filly holds an entry for the G2 Airlie Stud Stakes on July 19th.

Her broodmare sire, triple G1 winner Oratorio has three lots on offer at the upcoming Emperors Palace National Yearling Sale.
