Lady Rothschild's most memorable season as an owner continued to provide enjoyment as Thistle Bird stormed away with the Listed Woodcote Stud EBF Valiant Stakes at Ascot.
One of Europe's most distinguished families have long been famed for success in the financial sector but their return as a force in racing has been sudden, with Waddesdon Stud in Buckinghamshire producing the Eclipse and Irish Oaks winners Nathaniel and Great Heavens.

GOLDEN CHANCE FOR SALVATION.

Golden Lilac gets the chance to repair her reputation when she faces four rivals in the Prix Rothschild at Deauville on Sunday.
Trainer Andre Fabre had spoken in glowing terms about his three-time Group One-winning filly after she beat Cirrus Des Aigles on her first start of the campaign in the Prix d'Ispahan in May.
She was widely expected to follow up in the Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket earlier this month, but trailed home a well-beaten ninth of 10 runners after getting worked up beforehand.
