Lyons expecting big things from Obliterator

Ger Lyons is looking forward to seeing what Obliterator can do when he starts his three-year-old campaign in the ebm-papst Feilden Stakes at Newmarket today.

The Oratorio colt, co-owned by Qatar Racing, has several lofty entries, including in the Qipco 2000 Guineas, and won his only race to date in highly promising fashion at the Curragh in September.

Lyons has brought Obliterator to Newmarket in search of suitable ground and to give him vital experience.
