Impressive debut winner St Nicholas Abbey is likely to head Aidan O’Brien’s assault on the Juddmonte Beresford Stakes at the Curragh on Sunday.

The Montjeu colt was sent off a warm order for his racecourse debut at the track just over a month ago and he readily pulled four lengths clear of his nearest pursuer.
