Racing: Albany Stakes winner Nijoom Dubai will step up to Group One company on her next start in the Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh.

Mick Channon's daughter of Noverre sprang a 50-1 shock at Royal Ascot, beating hot favourite You'resothrilling in the process.

The runner-up's subsequent success in last week's Cherry Hinton Stakes at Newmarket has further boosted the form and connections are looking forward to a move up in class on September 2nd.

"She will go for the Moyglare. This is a good filly," said Bruce Raymond, racing manager to owner Jaber Abdullah.

"We didn't quite go to Ascot thinking she was going to win because she got beat at Folkestone the time before.

"She only went there for some experience and I thought she would win on the bridle - I even said to the jockey to win by six lengths to give her some experience!

"Unbelievably, she got beat because she got wiped out.  It was funny racing that day as they were racing all over the track but this filly is pretty good."
