Amusingly, out of Joyeuse—a half-sister to our resident stallion Kikkuli—continues to add further strength to an already remarkable pedigree.

Another determined winner for Expert Eye, as his four-year-old daughter Eazy On The Eye battles home at Epsom over 1400m.

Settled in midfield under George Wood, she began to make her move two furlongs from home before taking the lead inside the final furlong. Faced with a sustained challenge all the way to the line, she dug deep to prevail by a short head.

Trained by Heather Main and bred by Ellis Stud Partnership, Eazy On The Eye is out of the Farhh mare Yaa Mous.

Another performance full of heart from an Expert Eye progeny, with Eazy On The Eye showing plenty of determination when it mattered most.

Berry Clever gets his head in front at Newmarket!

Consistency is rewarded as Berry Clever, the five-year-old son of Expert Eye, battles home to win the JRA Japan Cup Handicap over a mile at Newmarket.

Held up towards the rear under Silvestre De Sousa, Berry Clever had to wait for his opportunity before finding daylight late in the race. Once in the clear, he finished strongly to take the lead in the closing stages and hold on gamely by a neck.

The victory marks his fifth career success, having now won from 1400m to 1600m, and comes after a remarkably consistent run of four consecutive fourth-place finishes.

Bred and owned by Strawberry Fields Stud and trained by Chris Dwyer, Berry Clever is out of the Archipenko mare Rose Berry.

Another tough and genuine campaigner for Expert Eye, and richly deserved after knocking on the door all season.

Pearl Eye makes it TEN!

The remarkably tough Pearl Eye added yet another victory to his résumé at Ayr today, recording his 10th career win in the Tennent’s L***r Handicap over 2600m.

The six-year-old son of Expert Eye had to overcome a less-than-perfect passage through the race, finding himself short of room two furlongs from home before making his move. Under Rhys Elliott, he took the lead entering the final furlong and stayed on strongly to score by 1½ lengths.

Today’s victory came over the longest trip of his career to date, having already won from 1400m to 2000m.

Ten victories and counting for this wonderful campaigner.
