James Doyle and Aidan O’Brien will be hoping to team up for further Group 1 glory this weekend with the Godolphin-based jockey booked to partner hot favourite Diego Velazquez in Saturday’s Futurity Trophy.
Ryan Moore picked up a five-day ban for careless riding on board Skellet in the Oh So Sharp at Newmarket's Cesarewitch meeting, leaving the door open for James Doyle to partner the market leader on Doncaster's Town Moor.
James Doyle and Aidan O'Brien have already enjoyed notable Group 1 success this season courtesy of Warm Heart's top-level victories in both the Yorkshire Oaks and Prix Vermeille.
O'Brien, who chases a record-breaking twelfth success in the Group 1 juvenile prize, said: "Diego Velazquez looks the main one for the Futurity Trophy on Saturday,".
"We are very happy with him since his last run and James Doyle has been booked for him. We will probably run one other horse in the race, and we are looking forward to it."
Aidan O'Brien is currently responsible for five of the eleven entries as he bids to record a third-straight success in the contest following victories for Luxembourg in 2021 and dual Derby hero Auguste Rodin last season.
