NO STOPPING LAKE VICTORIA AS AIDAN TAKES THE GUINEAS

The 10-11 favourite in the hands of Ryan Moore, Aidan O'Brien's filly was unbeaten at two when taking a trio of Group One events over distances ranging from six furlongs to a mile, including at the Breeders’ Cup.

She returned at a mile in the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket, but connections were not far wrong when they said her preparation had been hurried and she was eventually sixth of 10 runners on the Rowley Mile.
