Juncture (GB)

Juncture broke her maiden in only the second race of her two-year-old season. Trainer Ger Lyons thought enough of that performance to run her in the Gr.3 Silver Flash Stakes at Leopardstown a month later. Here she earned her first blacktype, finishing as runner up behind the more experienced Agartha who went on to win the Gr.1 Moyglare Stud Stakes.

Making her seasonal return at Dundalk in early March, Juncture put up a classy performance in the Listed Patton Stakes, lengthening away effortlessly to win by a six length margin. She placed twice in Group company over the summer before collecting her second stakes win, again at Dundalk, in the Listed Cooley Stakes in November.

Juncture is the first foal out of the unraced Occurrence (Frankel), a half-sister to the Gr.1 Pretty Polly Stakes winner Promising Lead and the Gr.3 Princess Margaret Stakes winner and three times Gr.1-placed Visit (Oasis Dream). Her second dam is Listed Bahrain Trophy winner Arrive, a full-sister to Juddmonte blue-hen Hasili.
