Aidan O'Brien recorded his fifth straight win in the Group 3 Japan Racing Association Tyros Stakes, as his Anthony Van Dyck impressively dismissed his four rivals.

Seventh on his debut at the Curragh earlier this month, he came home eight lengths to the good on his second start at Killarney.

Expected to follow-up this evening, the son of Galileo was sent off the 8/11 favourite under Ryan Moore.

Settled in second, the bay victor was pushed along to lead from the furlong pole, and he soon stretched clear, going on to score by four and three parts of a length.

The 7/4 second favourite Bold Approach never managed to land a blow, and he kept on to take second under Kevin Manning for Jim Bolger.

"You'd be delighted with that. We always thought he was a horse that was going to get a mile well, and he did in Killarney, and when you see him doing that he's obviously a smart colt," said O'Brien.

"I didn't see Ryan as he was gone when I got down but he said to the lads that he felt like a very nice horse.

"We were happy to make it if we had to. It was decisive enough in the end.

"We thought that he would stay very well but looking at him there he doesn't have to go back to a mile.

"We were very happy and I'd say he'll probably go for something like the Futurity and then the National Stakes.

"I'm sure there will be plenty of them have to go to a mile but looking at him there today you wouldn't say he'd have to. He got it very well in Killarney."

On Goddess O'Brien added: "She ran ordinary but obviously we have a little bit of a thing around.

"Everything is fine with them, obviously we wouldn't run anything unless they looked to be perfect scopes and bloods, but when that is around some will disappoint.

"That's just the way it is and we have to be prepared.

"We can stop racing horses and stop running all together but then we'd know nothing. Obviously it effects some and doesn't effect others.

"Hopefully she leaves that run behind her. She wasn't distressed or anything but she just didn't turn up today.

"I didn't see the vets report but obviously there's just something a little amiss."
