Nola Soul is being targeted at the Curragh’s Futurity Stakes in late August, as Fozzy Stack aims to “shoot for the stars” with his talented Royal Ascot scorer.
The son of Justify has shown plenty of quality in the early stages of his career, beating subsequent Windsor Castle Stakes winner King Of Cloughan at Leopardstown on debut before landing the Chesham Stakes in taking fashion at the Royal meeting.
His handler is now eyeing two further outings this term, beginning in the Group Two event often dominated by Aidan O’Brien and last year won by Constitution River.
Stack said: “He’s fine and in good shape. We’re probably aiming him at the Futurity at the Curragh on the third weekend in August. That’s where we’ll go if all goes according to plan.
“He’s a nice prospect and I’d imagine he’ll only have another two runs this year, the first one being the Futurity and then wherever we end up after that, all being well you’d hope it will be one of those nice Group Ones towards the back-end.
“If you shoot for the stars, hopefully we’ll land on the moon.”
