New winner for Persian Force

Persian Force, Europe’s leading first-crop sire, fired in another winner on Tuesday when Amo Racing’s Empire Rising made all to score at Beverley.

The Charlie Clover-trained youngster had been knocking on the door in his brief career to date, making his success all the more deserved.

The 17th winner for Persian Force, Empire Rising was bred by Michael Buckley out of the Teofilo mare Single Thought.

Persian Force’s collection of first-crop winners is led by the Group 3 Molecomb Stakes scorer Pershaada, who could be seen next taking on her elders in the Group 1 Nunthorpe Stakes at York.
