What we do know for certain is the team sending First Amendment out. Joseph Patrick O'Brien's yard at Owning Hill in Co Kilkenny has been in extraordinary form this season, with 171 winners already on the board. To put that in perspective, that is not a yard that fills out entries for the sake of it — when a horse leaves that operation for the track, it is generally because the team believes it is ready. O'Brien has built one of the most respected training operations in Ireland, and a debut runner from his yard always carries a degree of credibility. First Amendment has no race record to lean on, but with breeding like this and a trainer firing on all cylinders, there is every reason to pay attention.
