Micheal Orlandi's Compas Stallions will sponsor the Space Traveller Irish EBF Committed S. at Navan on Saturday, Apr. 27, the racecourse announced on Thursday. One of seven stallions on the roster, Space Traveller (GB) is a Group 2 winner, and is standing his second season at stud.

The Space Traveller Irish EBF Committed S. is one of three black-type races on the card, alongside the SBK Vintage Crop S. and the G3 Irish EBF Salsabil S. There will also be a Flat Season Preview at the racecourse featuring Orlandi, host David Jennings, Irish Champion Jockey Colin Keane and Kevin Blake.

Owner and stud manager Orlandi said, “We are delighted to sponsor the Space Traveller Irish EBF Committed S. at Navan, a stepping stone to Royal Ascot success. As Space Traveller won at Royal Ascot himself, it seems the perfect fit, both in name and race conditions. Space Traveller's first foals have landed and have been met with rave reviews. We look forward to welcoming breeders to Navan on Saturday the 27th.”
