Aidan O'Brien has been enjoying an excellent opening four days at Royal Ascot this week and, in that time, added another three winners in Ireland, as his Loved completed the Champion Trainer's double in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden at Limerick today.

O'Brien's five high profile (Gleneagles, Washington DC, War Envoy, Waterloo Bridge, Aloft) Royal Ascot winners have been achieved in the same period as his Painted Cliff (Leopardstown on Tuesday), Jacobean and Loved (both at Limerick today) each won in Ireland.

Both Jacobean and Loved were ridden by Seamie Heffernan and after Loved had won, the jockey stated "she is a lovely filly and won easy. She's not over-big but has a big heart and can step up to Stakes company in the future."
