Big guns Toronado and Kingman remain on course for the latest 'Duel on the Downs' following the confirmation stage for the QIPCO Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood on Wednesday

The filly in contention is Sir Michael Stoute's Integral, who opened her Group One account in the Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket's July meeting.
Irish trainer Aidan O'Brien has three possibles in Darwin, Illusive and War Command, while Godolphin's Outstrip, third in the St James's Palace, completes the list but he will only run if conditions are suitable.
Charlie Appleby wants to see the ground on the fast side if Outstrip is to take his chance against the big-hitters.
Charlie Hills is hoping Kiyoshi can gain an overdue success when dropped in class for the Listed Woodcote Stud EBF Stallions ValiantStakes at Ascot on Friday
