Irish Racing Post Thursday, April 29, 2010 3 by Martin Stevens Repeat success paves way for yet another good year with best mile prizes in sights MARTIN LYNCH PACO BOY Race analysis Paco Boy announced he was back and as good as, or even better than, ever, by storming to a three-and-a-quarter length victory in Saturday’s Bet365 Mile on his five-year-old debut. It was Paco Boy’s second consecutive win in the race, which his trainer Richard Hannon has farmed in recent years – twice with Hurricane Alan and once with Major Cadeaux. The competition looked up to scratch, with dual Group 1 winner Pressing (giving 4lb) finishing runner-up and lightly raced four-year-old The Cheka in third. The stage is set for Paco Boy to again play a leading part in this season’s premier 1m races, including his immediate target, the Lockinge Stakes, in which he was not beaten far into fourth last season. His longer-term aims are Royal Ascot’s Queen Anne Stakes, in which he clocked a second Group 1 success last year, and the Prix Jacques le Marois. It will be fascinating to see if connections are tempted to try Paco Boy at sprinting again, after his sole inconclusive start over 6f since his juvenile season in last year’s July Cup, in which he was held up (too exaggerated, to many observers’ eyes) and flew home to finish fourth. Pedigree Paco Boy is the jewel in the crown of a mini-dynasty nurtured by his County Louth-based hobby breeder Joan Browne and her Paco Boy (Richard Hughes) runs away with Sandown’s Group 2 Bet365 Mile for a second successive year and now heads for the Lockinge Stakes late husband Nicholas.
