City Of Troy Wins Juddmonte International

City Of Troy, trained by Aidan O'Brien and ridden by Ryan Moore, claimed a record-setting victory in the Juddmonte International at York, marking his third consecutive top-flight win after the Derby at Epsom and the Eclipse at Sandown. Despite not delivering a dominant performance akin to Frankel, he managed to fend off strong competition from Calandagan and Ghostwriter, securing victory by a length. O'Brien, who has now won the Juddmonte seven times, praised City Of Troy as the best horse he has ever trained. The race saw a record field of 13 runners, including notable contenders like Ambiente Friendly and Durezza. Moore's tactical decision to lead from the start played a crucial role in the victory, showcasing excellent jockeyship.
