A superlative victory by Mastercraftsman in this afternoon's Phoenix Stakes saw the Danehill Dancer colt promoted to 6-1 (from 20-1) ante-post favourite for next year's 2000 Guineas, in addition to chalking up another Group One success for O'Brien. The current record of 25 was set by American New York Bobby Frankel back in 2003, but with the Ballydoyle trainer enjoying one of the best seasons of his career, the milestone looks only a heartbeat away with Glorious Good, and York still to come. Kate Miller, Spokeswoman for William Hill, said: "Aidan O'Brien has established himself as the Tiger Woods of racehorse training. However good the rest can be, he simply continues to keep pulling away. Never one to rest on his laurels, you know that if he has the record within his sights the full battalion at Ballydoyle will be at his disposal and that is why he's odds-on to achieve it." |
