Horse racing-Record-equalling 2,000 Guineas triumph for O’Brien (Reuters)
Irish trainer Aidan O’Brien recorded a record-equalling seventh triumph in the 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket when he saddled the Ryan Moore-ridden Gleneagles to victory in the first British Classic of the season on Saturday. O’Brien, master of the huge Coolmore racing operation at Ballydoyle, improved his extraordinary record in the race as Moore, who has a claim on being the world’s best jockey, piloted the 4-1 favourite to an emphatic two and a quarter length victory over a mile.
