Hi class colt who made his debut in May last year in a 6f maiden at the Curragh, finishing 5th, beaten 4 ½ l by My Chance, then won a 7f maiden again at the Curragh in July beating Would Be King 1 ¾ l. Stepped up in class 2 weeks later at Newmarket he was a head winner of a 7f group 2from Nebo. Not seen again until April this year he won a 7f listed race at Leopardstown by 1 ¾ l from Imagining, a performance that saw bookmakers elevate him to favourite for the 2000 guineas. I am not sure about that but Aiden O’ Brien told the punter recently, "We're thinking the Guineas with Gustav Klimt and he could go to Leopardstown on the way there for the trial. Because he missed the second half of last year, and he's a little bit round still, he might take a run in Leopardstown. He was a little bit wrong behind last year and we think it was a muscle behind."
Trainer A O’Brien
