News
Kalpana is raring to go for Saturday's King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes (4.10) after recent rain at Ascot eased conditions to good at the royal racecourse.  Connections had been nervous about the prospect of quick ground for Britain's richest all-aged contest, but after rain arrived at Ascot over the weekend, and with further showers forecast before the two-day King George meeting starts on Friday, Kalpana is primed for action. 

"Kalpana is all systems go for the King George," said Barry Mahon, European racing manager to owners Juddmonte. "This has been her intended target since her last run in Ireland and she's in good shape."
Field Of Gold could face up to ten rivals when he takes on his elders for the first time in next week's Visit Qatar Sussex Stakes (3.05) on the second day of Glorious Goodwood on Wednesday. Field Of Gold could renew rivalry with Henri Matisse, who was runner-up at Royal Ascot following his French 2,000 Guineas success. His trainer Aidan O'Brien has also left in The Lion In Winter, Rosallion, Lead Artist.
