Any questions about York's easy ground were comprehensively answered by Bacio (Maclean's Music) as the US sensation did his pillar-to-post act in Friday's G1 Coolmore City Of Troy Nunthorpe Stakes.Arguably Juan Hernandez's only anxious moment came in the stalls, with the 3-1 favourite momentarily upset and threatening to spoil the cross-Atlantic party before it even began but once composure was regained it was all about pace, pace and more pace in the event itself.At the line, the Wesley Ward-trained three-year-old who had burst onto the scene in Royal Ascot's Palace Of Holyroodhouse Handicap had 1 1/4 lengths to spare over Starlust (Zoustar), who nosed out Rumstar (Havana Grey) for second.Wow!Bacio leads from pillar to post in the Group 1 @coolmorestud City Of Troy Nunthorpe Stakes under Juan Hernandez for Wesley Ward @yorkracecourse pic.twitter.com/hevC98hbmb— Racing TV (@RacingTV) August 21, 2026The post USA!
