Fresh off a win in the G1 Sussex S. on Wednesday, Paddington (GB) (Siyouni {Fr}) has emerged from that effort “absolutely fine” and the G1 Juddmonte International S. later this month is under consideration by his connections, according to trainer Aidan O'Brien.
The Coolmore partners-owned 'TDN Rising Star' was winning his fourth Group 1 race after taking the Irish 2000 Guineas, St James's Palace S., and the Eclipse S. in succession prior to his score during the Qatar Goodwood Festival. The York showpiece will see the son of Modern Eagle (Ger) (Montjeu {Ire}) stretch back out in distance to 10 1/2 furlongs from a mile.
“Everything seems fine with him after the race, absolutely fine,” said O'Brien. “We're going to decide over the next week to 10 days where next, but York has to be a possibility.
“He just seems to be thriving for his racing.”
The colt is following a similar career path to fellow Ballydoyle luminary Giant's Causeway, who won the St James's Palace, Eclipse, Sussex and International before the Irish Champion S.
