  • Aidan O'Brien and Wayne Lordan teamed up to take the Captain Dara Fitzpatrick Memorial Maiden with the Galileo colt Highbury.
    Another horse beaten on debut, the bay built on that experience to cruise home on his second start and claim and seven-and-a-half-length success as the 11-10 favourite.
    Stable representative Chris Armstrong said: “He’s a horse that had shown a lot at the backend of last year and early in the spring and we just had to get him out.
    “Aidan ran him in Cork and he ran a lovely race but he was just very green throughout.
    “He stepped up a nice bit from Cork to here, he’s still not fully there yet but he’s a horse that stays very well and he can gallop.
    “He could come back here for something like the Nijinsky Stakes, he could be an Ascot horse or an Irish Derby horse. They are all nice options to have.
    “He’s a high cruiser, stays well and it’s nice to see what he has promised at home on the track.”

    Sprinted impressively at the end of a strong gallop.

    This family is ultra versatile; yesterday in the US, a War Front 2yo filly called Bullet won a minor stakes sprinting on turf in Florida--might make an appearance at Royal Ascot as a result; both horses stem from the champion Surfside, herself a daughter of champion Flanders

    Nice looking, fluent action, good long stride with plenty of stamina. Group 1 horse in the making.

    And he did the 12 furlongs in exactly the same time per furlong as Los Angeles.

    Looked a bit free early on too so did well to pull away.

    Visually impressive but after seeing him and Los Angeles up close id say Los Angeles has more scope.

      Yes you would wonder if Highbury might be a Leger horse.

      They are smart they want a Derby winner to have a good 2yo pedigree.
      But anyway you must fancy Highbury for the Leger?
      Good e/w atleast

      He is a very good horse . He will run him in the Derby .
