Colin Keane made the perfect start as Juddmonte retained jockey when Blue Bolt recorded a bloodless victory at Newbury on Thursday.
It was the first time the six-time Irish champion had donned the famous colours of the Abdullah family since his appointment was announced on Monday, as he took the reins aboard Andrew Balding's Windsor scorer Blue Bolt, who was sent off the 6-4 second-favourite for the Darley EBF Fillies' Novice Stakes.
