Legatissimo completes Guineas double for Ryan Moore

It was almost a case of deja vu as Ryan Moore completed a magical weekend on Newmarket’s Rowley Mile when showing his strength in the saddle aboard Legatissimo in the Qipco 1000 Guineas.

Twenty four hours after gaining his first 2000 Guineas on the Aidan O’Brien-trained Gleneagles in the same colours, the 31-year-old stole the show again with a power-packed ride aboard the 13-2 shot, this time for David Wachman.

In doing so, Moore became the first rider since Kieren Fallon in 2005 to do the big-race double on Guineas weekend.
