LOS TO BE THE BOSS

O'Brien's colt will be a tough nut to crack bidding for more Group One glory

- By The Scout (Melissa Jones)

OS ANGELES (4.20) is on the A-list for Aidan O'Brien and Ballydoyle in the Prince Of Wales's Stakes.

The top-class Camelot colt has his own little fan club with members in admiration of his will-to-win and striking physique.

Third to Bluestocking in last year's Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, Los Angeles has bettered his three-year-old form this season.

Always doing enough to hold Group One winner White Birch in the Mooresbridge Stakes, a race run at the next level down, my selection showed he had improved by putting more distance between himself and that rival subsequently.

Facing defeat by the smooth-travelling Anmaat at the Curragh, Los Angeles dug deep into his reserves to claw back the advantage in the Tattersalls Gold Cup.

Classy filly Kalpana was third to rubber-stamp the form and O'Brien's star can confirm he is right out of the top drawer.
