Aidan O’Brien is no stranger to breaking records. He has already trained multiple Group 1 winners and in 2014 he trained his 11th winner of the Irish Derby since 1997. It is not for the creation of that record that Aidan is receiving his presentation, but for another record he set in 2014 in relation to the Derby. The Derby was run for the first time in 1780. Since then it has been run on 235 occasions. However, in 2014 Aidan achieved something that no trainer has ever achieved before in the history of the race when he became the first person to train three consecutive winners of the race - an incredible achievement.Australia secured O'Brien the record last year after Camelot and Ruler Of The World romped home to victory in 2012 and 2013 respectively.
