Bookmakers the only ones feeling blue after Air show

Ballydoyle has its share of big hitters when it comes to betting and they certainly weren’t found wanting with Air Force Blue in last Saturday’s Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket.

My information was that the son of Galileo was regarded as a bit special - that’s understating it - and said here a week ago Saturday night would be somewhat restless if he failed to deliver.

Well, there was no cause for worry, because the display of Air Force Blue was quite spectacular.
