Love Prevails In the 1000 Guineas

[Wandering Eyes]

It was another G1 Qipco 1,000 Guineas for Ballydoyle as Love (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) stormed to a 4 1/4-length success under Ryan Moore. Always travelling strongly out wide, the chestnut was sent to the front heading down the dip and powered clear for an emphatic verdict over Cloak of Spirits (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), with the free-running 11-4 favourite Quadrilateral (GB) (Frankel {GB}) a head behind in third.
