Battleground stuck to his guns to take Listed honours in the Chesham Stakes at Royal Ascot.

The Aidan O’Brien-trained War Front colt out of the brilliant racemare Found showed he had benefited from the experience of his debut at Naas last week with a professional display.

O’Brien said: “He’s a lovely horse, the first out of Found and he’s very exciting really.We were a bit worried about the ground as he’s by War Front, but Found herself didn’t mind soft and won a Breeders’ Cup on it so that gave us hope."

“He’s an exciting horse, he could be anything. He could be a horse for the July meeting, he could be for the National Stakes. I’d imagine a mile will be his trip. He’s by War Front so that’s a big influence of speed, you’d be hoping he’d progress into being a very good miler.”

He added: “Found was a magic mare, one of the special ones so when her foals come along you hope they do well and he’s the first one – he’s an unbelievable specimen.”
