Top Irish trainer Aidan O’Brien has built up a stack of horse racing records over the years and this weekend he can add another if he wins the Newmarket July Cup on Saturday.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Aidan O’Brien Needs Just One More Newmarket July Cup Win To Become The Winning-Most Trainer (on his own)<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Newmarket July Cup is the big Group One race at horse racing’s HQ this Saturday.<\/p>\n

With \u00a3372,585 to the winner, the prize is not to be sniffed at – which is why over the years many top trainers have targeted the race.<\/p>\n

Since 2005, Hughie Morrison and Clive Cox has both fired in two Newmarket July Cup wins, while 12 months ago Jane Chapple-Hyam landed her first when Mill Stream proved the quickest over the 6f trip.<\/p>\n

However, it’s that man again Aidan O’Brien, who is currently topping the tree as the joint winning-most trainer in the race’s long 148-year history.<\/p>\n

O’Brien has sent out five Newmarket July Cup winners to date – the same as trainers Charles Morton, who won his haul in the early 1900’s, and the legendary Vincent O’Brien with a handful of wins between 1973 and 1990.<\/p>\n

All this means that Aidan O’Brien could become the July Cup’s winning-most trainer on Saturday (in his own right), if he can find winner number six in the big Group One Newmarket contest.<\/p>\n

    Who Will Aidan O’Brien Run In The 2025 Newmarket July Cup?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Many are suggesting the 2025 running isn’t a vintage renewal – and it’s easy to see why.<\/p>\n

    Last year’s 2000 Guineas winner Notable Speech was supplemented for the July Cup<\/a> earlier this week. He’s been installed as the favourite with the best horse racing betting sites in the UK<\/a> – but will he be as good down in trip?<\/p>\n

    The Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes third Flora Of Bermuda is a player too. However, with just one win from her last eleven races – this would be a concern.<\/p>\n

    All this means the race could be there for any horse to win – including the possible Aidan O’Brien July Cup runners, WHISLTEJACKET and IDES OF MARCH.<\/p>\n

    Of the two, Ryan Moore has picked Whistlejacket – no shock here.<\/p>\n

    But despite running only 6th last time at Royal Ascot in the Commonwealth Cup, the horse meant some traffic in-running and stayed on well at the finish (watch below).<\/p>\n
