A millstone worth 2.5million guineas around the neck of Hydrogen proved too great for the colt to carry at the first attempt as he finished an ordinary sixth on his long-awaited racecourse debut at Newmarket.
Had the son of Galileo not been the most expensive yearling sold at auction in 2012, his effort would have registered as just about reasonable, but Sheikh Fahad's Qatar Racing had even left him in next week's Investec Derby and will surely have expected better.
