Termagant won Moyglare Stakes

Termagant, the Kevin Prendergast-trained filly, won Moyglare Stakes. The winner, ridden by Declan McDonogh, was taking a massive step up in class after winning a maiden in June, but she proved equal to the task.

As a win-and-you're-in race, victory secured Termagant a place in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf, but Prendergast made no mention of that 1-mile contest in his post-race comments. In fact, the veteran Irish conditioner suggested that Termagant may not run again this year, stating that her major goal is now the Irish 1000 Guineas back at the Curragh next May.
