LEXINGTON, Ky. – Leave it to Aidan O’ Brien to rewrite the record book. No filly had even dared try to run in Keeneland’s back-to-back Grade 1 turf races for females until O’Brien tried it on consecutive Saturdays with a 3-year-old named Together, who made the iconic Irish trainer look like the genius he is when she stormed to a 1 1/4-length triumph this latest Saturday in the $400,000 Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup.
