O´Brien Dominates Dewhurst Picture Aidan O´Brien is responsible for eight of the 17 horses confirmed for Saturday´s Darley Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket. The Ballydoyle trainer´s team is headed by National Stakes winner George Washington and Horatio Nelson, who lifted the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere at Longchamp. Amigoni, Arabian Prince, Aussie Rules, Dylan Thomas, Ivan Denisovich and Marcus Andronicus complete the O´Brien party in the Group One race for two-year-olds over seven furlongs. Opera Cape, runner-up to Horatio Nelson in France, has been left in by Sylvester Kirk, while Sir Percy could defend his unbeaten record for Marcus Tregoning. Barry Hills is double-handed with Killybegs and Red Clubs, and David Loder could bid for a final big-race success before he retires at the end of the season with the unbeaten Primary, owned by Highclere Thoroughbred Racing. Mark Johnston, who sent out Shamardal to lift this prize 12 months ago, could run Prince of Light, with the possibles completed by Kevin Ryan´s Palace Episode, Close To You from the Terry Mills yard and Humungous, trained by Charlie Egerton.(C) PA Sport
