Moore Guides City Of Troy to Triumph in Juddmonte Stakes.

Ryan Moore secured his third win in the Juddmonte International Stakes as City Of Troy achieved a stunning victory at York.

The 5-4 favorite, trained by Aidan O'Brien, pulled ahead in the 1m 2f 56y Grade One race to win by a length, with Calandagan finishing second and Ghostwriter in third.

This victory marks Ryan Moore's third win in the Juddmonte International Stakes, following his previous wins on Notnowcato in 2006 and Japan in 2019.

City Of Troy, a son of Justify, redeemed himself after a disappointing run in the 2,000 Guineas in May, adding this win to his Derby and Coral-Eclipse victories.

"He's an exceptional two-year-old who just had one off day," Moore told ITV Racing.
