Factual Fact wins on debut at Thurles

Factual Fact (Authorized) wins in taking fashion at Thurles for owners Robcour and trainer Henry de Bromhead. 

Having been a rare yearling purchase on behalf of his owners, it was lovely to see their faith and foresight vindicated here as the four-year-old son of Authorized romped away from the field here to score by a going away 8 lengths.

Ridden cold in rear by John Gleeson he picked up very well in the straight and shot by the field in a matter of strides. He is a half brother to a Listed winner from a good middle distance family and should have an exciting future ahead of him over obstacles, he could also be a nice prospect to race on the flat should connections choose to do so. 

Factual Fact was purchased for 90,000gns at the 2020 Tattersalls October Yearling Sales.
