The Coolmore partners are no strangers to dishing out the odd auspicious name, think talents like Galileo, Camelot and Order Of St George.

Derrick Smith's famous purple and white colours have been carried to victory by the likes of dual Derby hero Camelot and the top-class Mastercraftsman.

Among the juveniles set to carry those same silks are Opulent, a daughter of Dubawi and Irish Oaks scorer Bracelet, Toy, the latest produce of the outstanding You'resothrilling and therefore a full-sister to Gleneagles, Marvellous and Happily, and an American Pharoah colt out of Yorkshire Oaks winner Tapestry named Leo The Great.
