What a performance second time up from this O'Brien youngster. Was there today (and got sunburn again) but this horse reminded me very much of Stravinsky (minus the blinkers) and can't wait to see him at Royal Ascot :)

Whoa, I got confused for a minute. There is an Achilles of Troy over here who is a stakes winner and also older... so yeah.

But anyway, what did the horse do? I assume he broke his maiden? By how much? :)

He looked weak before hand and the paddock commentator's weren't overly complimentary about him. He won by 5 lengths easily from a horse who was 3rd in the best British Maiden run so far (apparently), likely to go for the Coventry at Royal Ascot - this was the race George Washington was beaten in on his debut two years ago, though AOT had already been beaten by The Loan Express (runs today I think) a couple of weeks ago.
