Mount Kilimanjaro came from the clouds to provide Aidan O’Brien with yet another win in the Boodles Raindance Dee Stakes at
.
O’Brien is now the leading trainer in the race’s history, and this was his seventh win in eight renewals.
While none of his winners have gone on to follow up at Epsom, this son of Siyouni is now a general 20-1 chance for the blue riband Classic.
As Great David came over from a wide draw to lead the field at a strong pace,
was some way off the gallop.
He looked to have a mountain to climb as they turned into the straight, with High Stock taking over at the head of affairs, but the even-money favourite got going late on to win by a neck.
