Returning as a 3yo, she added the 1000 guineas & Irish equivalent to her already impressive record. She just failed to land he treble when finding Darjina too good in the French 1000 guineas. The Irish classic proved to be her last win. Finsceal Beo returned as a 4yo but proved abit dissapointing. After a frustrating 4yo campaign. Finsceal Beo was retired to stud.
By leading sire Mr Greeley, Finsceal Beo is out of the dual stakes placed Musical Treat. She is a half sister to Group winner Frozen Power & the stakes placed pair Musical Bar & Zabeel Park.
Finsceal Beo's first mate, was champion stallion Galileo. This cross has yet to prove fruitful. The resulting offspring was Finsceal Fior. This colt was sent into training with his dams handler Jim Bolger. However an injury he picked up while in training curtailed his career and he was never seen on the race course.
Her second cover was to Galileo's world champion half brother Sea The Stars. That produced Too The Stars, who sold as a foal at Goffs in 2011 for a record €800,000.
She was then sent to Montjeu where that foal subsequently named O'l Man River sold for €2,850,000 to Coolmore as a yearling.
Finsceal Beo has a yearling full sister to Finsceal Fior & foaled a filly by world champion Frankel this year.
Finsceal Beo now has a 100% record at stud with her first two runners Too The Stars & O'l Man River both becoming winners, including one at stakes level. She had a rare double today with Too The Stars winning her maiden at Kempton Park & O'L Man River remaining undefeated in two starts in the Group 2 Beresford Stakes.
Both horses hold Group 1 claims, with O'l Man River a leading ante post favourite for the Epsom Derby. Finsceal Beo has certainly made a thrilling start to her second career.
