Aidan O’Brien claimed his record-extending ninth Coral Eclipse Stakes courtesy of a late thrust from Delacroix to overhaul Ombudsman in a thrilling finish.

A good draw gives Captains Knock his chance to return to the winners’ list for the first time since last year’s Inter Dominion series when he steps out second-up at Menangle on Saturday night.
