THERE was a notable post-race quote from John Gosden after he trained Lord North to win the 2020 Group 1 Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot.

The trainer said after the gelded four-year-old had won: “I didn’t have much choice, testosterone is the most dangerous drug in the world and it was certainly driving him completely mad. Since he’s been gelded he’s been very content; he’s not crazy like he used to be.”
