BARNSTORMING VICTORY FOR KINGS

Quote:
Kingsbarns staked his claim for Classic glory in 2013 with a clear-cut victory in the Racing Post Trophy at Doncaster.
Having only his second career start after easily winning a Navan maiden 17 days earlier, the 15-8 favourite tracked the leaders Steeler and Trading Leather before taking charge over a furlong out to give trainer Aidan O'Brien his seventh success in this Group One race.
Van Der Neer stayed on well for second on the stands rail, beaten a length and three-quarters without being able to get in a blow at the winner, with Steeler third.
