Master set to takeover ‘iron horse’ mantle

LOOKS as if Ballydoyle may have unearthed another iron horse in the shape of Mastercraftsman.

The great Giant’s Causeway, of course, was the original version but, following the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot on Tuesday, there is every reason to think Mastercraftsman may well be mark II.

Listened to Willie Carson cackling on about how Ballydoyle got the tactics so right, in contrast to the Epsom Derby, but can’t say I quite saw it like that.
