City Of Troy finishes eighth in Breeders' Cup Classic as Sierra Leone claims victory
City Of Troy, trained by Aidan O'Brien, finished eighth in the Longines Breeders' Cup Classic at Del Mar, disappointing fans who hoped for a strong performance. The horse struggled at the start, losing valuable ground early in the race. Sierra Leone won the race, while Fierceness and Forever Young took second and third, respectively. O'Brien acknowledged that City Of Troy was not prepared for a quick start, which hindered his chances. City Of Troy, a successful horse this year with wins in the Derby and other major races, will now begin his stallion career. O'Brien expressed pride in training him and looks forward to his future offspring.
