Fallon - Oratorio In Great Shape

Kieren Fallon is looking forward to teaming up with Oratorio in the Baileys Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown on Saturday.

He reported the Aidan O´Brien-trained colt to be in fine shape ahead of the Group One contest over a mile and a quarter.

Oratorio will be hoping to repeat his Coral-Eclipse Stakes victory over Vodafone Derby winner Motivator on his latest start at Sandown in early July.

'He´s in good form. He´s improved a lot from the start of the year. He´s just progressed. He looks great,' said Fallon.

'I´ve not ridden him in any of his work recently. His regular rider´s been sitting on him. Aidan´s happy with him and that´s good enough for me.'
