Aidan O'Brien unleashed a potential superstar at the Curragh as Henry Longfellow, named after a famous poet, proved poetry in motion on debut for team Ballydoyle.
Sent off the well-backed 5/4 favourite, the son of Dubawi travelled powerfully into contention in the seven-furlong event and kept on strongly to score by three-quarters of a length, leading home a 1-2-3 for the Coolmore operation in the silks of Michael Tabor.
Henry Longfellow is out of multiple G1 scorer Minding and looks destined for the very top based on this performance.
He earned quotes of 25/1 for the Derby following the win.
