Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be an acute-angled triangle with circumcircle ω\omega and circumcentre OO. Points DBD\neq B and ECE\neq C lie on ω\omega such that BDACBD\perp AC and CEABCE\perp AB. Let COCO meet ABAB at XX, and BOBO meet ACAC at YY.
Prove that the circumcircles of triangles BXDBXD and CYECYE have an intersection lie on line AOAO.
