News
Aidan O’Brien has told the Punter that Oaks winner Tuesday will be supplemented for Saturday’s Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby and Ryan Moore will ride.

Stradivarius remains on course to bid for a fifth Al Shaqab Goodwood Cup victory after featuring among the entries for the Group 1 on July 26. The eight-year-old, who could be retired after the 2m contest, was denied a fourth Ascot Gold Cup victory last week when finishing third to Kyprios and Mojo Star and could face those rivals once more on the opening day of the Qatar Goodwood Festival.

Derby absentee Eydon is back in training with options at York or in France pencilled in for his comeback. The Roger Varian-trained colt finished fourth in the 2000 Guineas and after connections deliberated long and hard about giving him the go-ahead for Epsom, he was almost immediately ruled out with a setback. It was not too serious, though, and the Sky Bet York Stakes on July 23 or the Prix Guillaume d’Ornano at Deauville on August 15 are the races under consideration.
