GROSVENOR SQUARE wins by 20 lengths in Curragh romp



Grosvenor Square turned the Comer Group International Irish St. Leger Trial Stakes into an absolute procession.

Moore bounced him into an early lead and by halfway the rest had a mountain to climb.

In the home straight, the 1-2 favourite just pulled further and further clear, winning by a yawning 20 lengths. County Hurdle winner Absurde never featured and finished a distant fourth of five runners.

Paddy Power cut Grosvenor Square to 8-1 from 20s for the St Leger at Doncaster.

O’Brien said: “He has serious stamina when he gets into a rhythm. He’s an exciting horse.

“It’s a quandary whether you follow him or don’t follow him.

“I said to Ryan ‘was he finished at the line?’ – and he said he wasn’t, that he galloped through the line.

“It’s very hard not to go to Doncaster, we’ll see what the lads want to do but it’s three-year-olds. He’s so uncomplicated, you go out there and let him go.

“He handles soft ground as well.”

  1. Ryan Moore the worlds greastest jockey Buick not on the same class and finding for the best trainer.the world has ever seen

  2. WTF were the other jockeys thinking, you don't give Ryan Moore a lead like that.. What a false race

  3. Another easy lead for Moore. What are the other jockeys thinking. Even with 4 furlongs to go, and then 3 furlongs, they still aren’t putting much effort into it.

  4. Weird ‘race’…. It was as if the others decided to have their own race whilst Moore rode a piece of work. You’d think the winner won at unbackable odds….

  5. Tower of London form links very nicely he won a big race I think two starts back in Meydan so the form was there but there's nothing that can compete with O'Brien any trainer would love to have one horse for the derby were he does have six seven

  6. They can all be as good as they like,but they are not in the same class as Nijinsky and lester piggott ,who were the last triple crown winners .Then you can talk about class.

  7. Grovners Square was a very impressive winner in the St Leger trial romping home by 20 L but can't believe the rest would give Ryan such a buffer. If they thought he'd come back to them makes the jockeys look 2nd rate amateurs because a jockey of Ryan's calabier isn't going to ride a horse to hit a brick wall 2-3 furlongs from home. Yeah stupid & the trainers of all the beaten horses won't be choosing them jockeys again as quickly I'd have thought. I wouldn't🤔
