PINATUBO produced an astonishing performance to land the Group 1 Goffs Vincent O’Brien National Stakes at the Curragh.

Representing the connections that were successful in last year’s renewal with Quorto, the Charlie Appleby-trained colt was sent off the 1/3 favourite for the seven-furlong feature on the back of an unbeaten four-race campaign that had included victories at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood.
