The Lion In Winter surprised his better-fancied stablemate Ides Of March to win the Juddmonte Chaldean Irish EBF (C&G) Maiden.
Aidan O’Brien’s pair were sent off at odds of 11-2 and 5-4 favourite respectively, with Ryan Moore opting to ride the market leader.
However, it was The Lion In Winter who proved strongest over the seven-furlong trip, sweeping through late on to win by two and a quarter lengths from Currawood, with Ides Of March a further length back in third.
The Lion In Winter is a 25-1 shot with Coral for both the 2000 Guineas and Derby next year and O’Brien has no concerns about a longer distance.
