Daybreak Boy scores at Dundalk for trainer Henry De Bromhead and owner John Patrick Byrne.Having only his second careers start, the 3-year-old son of Kingsalsa, who was purchased at the 2015 Goresbridge breeze up sale for €16,000 by EBS, took the spoils in the ‘ Happy Christmas From All at Dundalk Stadium Maiden’Having only his second careers start, the 3-year-old son of Kingsalsa, who was purchased at the 2015 Goresbridge breeze up sale for €16,000 by EBS, took the spoils in the ‘ Happy Christmas From All at Dundalk Stadium Maiden’.Under the expert guidance of Pat Smullen, De Bromheads’s charge was positioned in midfield through the early stages, before being gently nursed in to contention. Smullen asked the question just inside the final furlong and was answered with a strong turn of foot from Daybreak Boy who although looking a little green in front, ran out a ready winner by 4 1/2 lengths.After the race Smullen stated ”He’s a nice type for a December maiden. We went along at a good pace, and it rode like a decent race. Henry was confident of as good run, and he will probably go further in time. He was a little green went he went in front, and I think he is a horse that will keep improving”.
