O`Brien mob-handed at Dewhurst

Aidan O`Brien is responsible for 25 of the 48 acceptors revealed today for the £200,000 Darley Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket on October 20th.

The champion Irish trainer has left in several of his star youngsters, headed by the dual Group One winner Johannesburg, who runs in the Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket tomorrow, and Hawk Wing. He broke the track record when taking the Aga Khan Studs National Stakes at the Curragh.

The unraced Tasmanian Tiger, who at 6,800,000 dollars was the most expensive yearling sold at public auction last year, is another interesting O`Brien acceptor.

Dubai Destination, ante-post favourite for the Sagitta 2000 Guineas, heads a team of seven left in by David Loder.

He looked a Classic prospect when trouncing O`Brien`s Rock of Gibraltar, winner of the Scottish Equitable Gimcrack Stakes, in the Rothmans Royals Champagne Stakes at Doncaster last month.
