CROKE PARK (IRE), 2018 g. by Walk In The Park (Montjeu) out of Toledana (Protektor). Bred by A V Bloodstock

Croke Park is unbeaten in three starts over fences, adding a Grade 1 at Leopardstown to his victory in the Grade 1 Drinmore Novice Chase at Fairyhouse. The Dromahane point-to-point winner topped the Goffs UK Aintree Sale in 2022 following that point-to-point. He sold for a tasty €150,000 as store, having been a €47,000 foal, but at Aintree the hammer dropped in favour of Eddie O’Leary’s £400,000 bid. Beaten in a Kilbeggan bumper, his hurdle wins include a Grade 3 novice at Navan.
