Ballydoyle vibes are strong as Churchill goes for Classic glory

The field is smaller than usual but nobody could crib the quality of the Qipco 2,000 Guineas, for which Churchill has long been favourite. He deserves to go into the race holding that position. I think he will come out of the race a Classic winner.

The vibes coming out of Ballydoyle are strong. That makes me ever more confident he is much the likeliest winner.

Going into last year's royal meeting, the word from Ballydoyle was that Churchill was the stable's nap of the meeting. He duly obliged. I expect the positivity will again prove justified.
