AIDAN O’Brien will have the opportunity to become the most successful trainer in Juddmonte International Stakes history when sending superstar three-year-old Paddington into battle for the Group 1 highlight at York next Wednesday.

The Sky Bet Ebor Festival has often been a happy hunting ground for the master trainer and a win in the Juddmonte International would provide him with a record seventh success in the race, stretching one clear of Sir Michael Stoute on six.
