The trainer is Aidan P O'Brien, operating out of Cashel in County Tipperary — one of the most powerful yards in the world, and one that has sent out 144 winners already this season alone. That is a remarkable volume, but it also means Neolithic is competing for attention in a very deep and talented string. The fact that this horse has won twice and placed four times from just six starts tells you it belongs in that company, and is starting to justify its place in the stable.
Raced just one day ago and still active, Neolithic is right in the middle of its campaign. At three years old, horses are typically at the stage where everything clicks — they are stronger than they were at two, more settled in their routine, and starting to show whether they have genuine class or not. Two wins from six races at this point, trained by one of the sport's great operators, is an encouraging sign. Worth keeping a close eye on.
