- Continuous handled the drop to 10 furlongs with aplomb to win the Shoda Market Cafe Royal Whip Stakes at the Curragh, as Aidan O’Brien claimed all three Pattern races on the card.
Last season’s St Leger winner had only been seen once this term, when fifth in the Hardwicke at Royal Ascot behind Isle Of Jura.
He showed he was no back number over middle distances when fifth in the Arc after his Leger heroics and having now notched a win over a mile and a quarter, O’Brien has plenty of options.
Sent off the 4-7 favourite, he held off Trustyourinstinct by half a length under Ryan Moore.
O’Brien said: “We’re delighted with him and he has loads of options now.
“He can go to the Irish Champion, he can go to the (Irish) Leger. He could have a run in the Irish Champion with a view to going to the Arc after it.
“He’s a very versatile horse, a great horse to have.”
When asked if the Long Distance Cup at Ascot could be a possibility, he added: “100 per cent. He can do next year, he can do a Japan Cup. He has so many options.
“Ryan decided to take a lead with him today, he could have popped out and went all the way himself. It was lovely for him.
“He could even go two miles, we’ve never went that far but he could, I’d say. He’s an unusual type of horse.
“He’s a classy horse. He’s genuine and his head is always down.”

Not the stiffest opposition of course, but he's a beautiful looking horse.
He looks like he has a broken nose, bit of steve bruce about him
Do you know when is his next race?
I think AOB should try Continuous in the Arc. Remember last year he was still at the back of the pack at the top of the home straight and was struck inside Ace Impact. Judging the sections he ran in the last 800m, it was not a bad run at all. He starts this season late and just runs 2 times. It looks like he can stay up front rather than at the back. If he gets a low draw, he has chance to win. That being said, the lads may let him run in the Japan Cup because of his sire and probably may have opportunity to offer him to Japanese for breeding too, situation similar to Auguste Rodin.
DO you know when is his next race?
He would make a perfect champion hurdler prospect
Do you know when is next race?
@@skye8493 his entered In the Irish st leger
@@nicpaps1311 Thank you mate do you any other confirmed a load coming up so big odds so doubt he'll be running in them
He could go to the moon. Never get a straight answer out of him.
😂😂
What did he beat?
A former hurdler and a listed class 3 year old filly! Injury seems to have caused him to regress when hopes would have been high after last year's Arc for him.
@@frankelforever14that’s rubbish. He’s just being prepped for an autumn campaign like Aidan said we will now see him in all the big races.
@@johnnyboy6608 which part is rubbish, the facts about the horses he beat today or him regressing? On his two runs this year he hasn't shown too much to be getting excited about. It's obvious that Aidan is obviously going to big him up as Coolmore sent one of their mares to Japan for the bloodline, he is hardly going to turn around and say he was a bit disappointing today we expected more, obviously.
@@frankelforever14 that's a silly comment he's bringing him along slowly for a tilt at the arc
@@robertdelacy3434 which comment is silly? Do you actually think he has a chance of even placing in the Arc?
The arc or Irish champion stakes would be a complete waste of time
Ics yes a waste of time but arc no he ran a huge race in it last year as a 3yo after winning a leger that’s hard to do
I think he'd a have a chance in the Arc. Ran a nice race there last year. I think he'll win a group one again this season
There are too many good french Horses around this Year. Be amazed if one of them doesnt win Arc.
DO you no hes next race?😊
