Unbeaten Dawn Approach made it seven wins from seven starts on Saturday as he won the English 2000 Guineas to give the embattled Godolphin Operation a welcome piece of good news.
Trained by Irishman Jim Bolger the 11/8 favourite – whose sire New Approach finished second in the same race in 2008 – stormed clear in the final furlong under Kevin Manning to give Bolger his first win in the race.
For Godolphin owner Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum it comes after a turbulent two weeks in which on of his trainers, Mahmood al Zarooni, was banned for eight years for administering 15 horses with steroids.
