Bated breath at Ballydoyle

The chemistry between Aidan O’Brien and new Ballydoyle No 1 jockey, Kieren Fallon is encouraging, believes Pat Keane.

KIEREN FALLON is virtually certain to ride Footstepsinthesand, with Johnny Murtagh aboard Oratorio, in the English 2000 Guineas at Newmarket on Saturday.

“Kieren is favouring Footstepsinthesand”, reported Aidan O’Brien, on a magnificent morning, as hordes of Irish and British press descended on the most famous training establishment in Europe.
