True Love stormed to victory in the 213th 1,000 Guineas, delivering trainer Aidan O'Brien his eighth Classic win in the fillies’ division. Jockey Wayne guided the Ballydoyle filly, settling her before a late surge that left rivals trailing. The crowd at Newmarket roared as she powered home, underscoring O'Brien’s dominance.

Questions over her stamina lingered, as she had shown blistering speed over five furlongs but never tackled a mile. Owner‑breeder Michael Tabor admitted O'Brien was hesitant, yet the filly’s Cheveley Park Stakes Group One triumph convinced him to enter. Pre‑race favourite Precise, a four‑win juvenile, faded early, never threatening the finish. Lordan told ITV Sport she settled beautifully, making the mile a matter of time.

The triumph reinforces O'Brien’s reputation for coaxing mile‑distance form from sprint‑type fillies, a skill that has become a hallmark of his training operation. Tabor, left speechless, praised the trainer’s judgment, noting the result “produces the goods” as it has year after year. True Love now joins an elite roster of Classic winners. The win pushes his Classic tally to a level few trainers have matched.
