Another incredible performance as Highfield Princess stuns her Flying Five rivals at The Curragh

Highfield Princess completed a spectacular hat-trick of Group One victories with a deeply impressive success at the Curragh in the 2022 Al Basti Equiworld, Flying Five Stakes.

The 5-4 favourite, John Quinn’s charge had won the Prix Maurice de Gheest at Deauville and the Nunthorpe Stakes at York on her last two starts and recorded her third successive win with a performance of real quality.

Racing down the centre of the track, Highfield Princess was smartly away under Jason Hart and he let her bowl along as Flotus was prominent on the stands rail, with the winner travelling supremely well throughout.

The John Fairley-owned five-year-old could be called the winner a long way out and Hart let her track across to the stands side as she shot clear, eventually coming home three and a quarter lengths ahead of Erosandpsyche, with Flotus back in third.

“She’s a phenomenal filly. John bought her dam in foal and she didn’t run at two, we thought she’d win a race or two and all she’s done is improve,” said North Yorkshire-based Quinn, who will now look towards the Breeders' Cup at Keeneland in November.
