European Champion two-year-olds first foal is a colt out of Vital Force 

Coolmore has announced that the first foal by European Champion two-year-old and World Champion three-year-old, St Mark's Basilica (Siyouni), was born at Kiltinan Stud last week. 

The colt is out of Vital Force (Invincible Spirit) owned by the John Ferguson-headed Natalma Bloodstock. 

"He's a good first foal with a good frame to fill into and a confident temperament," said Kiltinan manager Donna Vowles.

Vital Force is a half-sister to Godolphin's 2015 Group 2 Coventry Stakes (6f) winner Buratino (Exceed And Excel) from the immediate family of Danehill Dancer (Danehill).
