Dylan flops in Turf
Dylan Thomas put in a lacklustre show to finish fifth behind impressive winner English Channel in the Breeders’ Cup Turf.
Aidan O’Brien’s brilliant Arc winner did not look happy on the rain-softened ground and never travelled at any stage for Johnny Murtagh.
However, Todd Pletcher’s English Channel was right at home in the conditions and ran out an impressive winner under John Velazquez.
Former French-trained Shamdinan finished second with last year’s winner, Brian Meehan’s Red Rocks, running a fine race in third under Frankie Dettori.
