Racing TV published this video item, entitled “ADELAIDE RIVER, son of Australia, makes a tidy debut in a Dundalk maiden for Ballydoyle” – below is their description.
The Aidan O’Brien-trained Australia colt was sent off at 11-4 for the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden and made those odds look generous with a bloodless success under Wayne Lordan.
He only needed to be pushed out, without his rider having to get serious at any stage, for a two-and-three-quarter-length victory over Golden Temple, with odds-on favourite Gimmie Shelter in third.
The winner holds a number of big-race engagements and was given a 40-1 quote for the 2023 Cazoo Derby by Paddy Power.
Lordan said: “He’s a lovely colt. He always showed a bit at home, but was always the lazy one as well. He went down to the start today nice and sleepy.”
Watch to see more of what the winning jockey had to say to Racing TV after the victory.
