Former Irish champion galloper Teofilo continued his remarkable success at siring elite runners when Character won the G2 Tulloch Stakes over 1,850m at Newcastle on Monday, 28 March.
Jockey Tommy Berry positioned the three-year-old in fifth spot at the halfway mark before peeling off the leaders’ heels at the top of the home straight.
Character, out of the Australian mare Monogram - the winner of five races - surged past race favourite Sword Point and then held off Regal Lion to notch his first win at Stakes level and the third of his career.
