ALBERT EINSTEIN destined for Coventry following debut win

Albert Einstein lived up to the hype when striking on debut in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden at Naas.

Aidan O’Brien had told reporters on a stable visit to his Ballydoyle yard weeks ago that of the early two-year-olds showing up well on the gallops, one who particularly caught his eye was a Wootton Bassett colt out of Yet.

That meant he was from the family of the great Giant’s Causeway and that, combined with an impressive physique, certainly made him stand out in a field of seven.

Ger Lyons’ Evening Blues served it up to him and having had a run showed more nous, but with just one flick of his whip, Wayne Lordan ensured Albert Einstein knew what was required and the 1-2 favourite pulled a length and a quarter clear.

Paddy Power cut him to 5-1 from 9s for the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot.

“He was never away and that’s the first time he’s come off the bridle,” said O’Brien.

“We’re delighted with him. You can see the size and power of him. He learned a bit today.

“Ger’s horse had a very good run the first day.

“We’ll see where he fits in. We always thought he was a Coventry horse, you’d like to get another run into him before.”
