Aidan O’Brien is looking forward to seeing Cape Blanco in action when he returns to the track in Thursday's totesport Dante Stakes at York.

The son of Galileo is unbeaten in three starts and heads to York as Ballydoyle’s number one, despite the fact he is currently in bandages after picking up a nick on his heel in the week.

"Cape Blanco nicked the back of a heel on Sunday and is wearing bandages, but he seems fine today and the plan is to run in the Dante," said O'Brien.

"He was three from three last year and shows loads of speed, but he is lazy in the way he races.

"If you let the rein go loose then he goes to sleep during a race and it will be interesting to see what he does."
