Nothing Rogue about Owen and Davies
Big-hitting Ombudsman lands knockout blow
Ascot is enormous now it is so big in our season and the Prince of Wales’s Stakes is one of the jewels. To win these races is what it’s all about and it’s great to beat the best on this stage. Aidan and I are big rivals but we get on and we tease each other a lot. There’s no harm in that and it’s a little bit of banter. Ombudsman though is a wonderful horse and only Calandagan and Delacroix beat him last year and he’s shown his class again today. He quickened well and showed some dominance there. You had Arc winners and champion racemares in there and it was a champions performance. I was really taken by his acceleration. It’s thrilling to win this again for Sheikh Mohammed and Godolphin, it’s what dreams are made of.
