Sussex Stakes 2nd Aug

i personally would fancy rib at those odds, how you see it 123

Rib was impressive last time however, is Churchill a better horse than The Gurhka who beat Rib in this race last year? If one believes so, and with his 7lbs wfa allowance Churchill looks the one for me; Churchill also goes on any ground as opposed to Rib being better on good and softish ground.

The £64k question is, is this the next target for Rib and Churchill and follow the same path as The Gurkha last year? Very probably now that Cliffs Of Moher is designated for the Eclipse, all being well of course.

agree rib has it to do on gurkha form but do think has improved a lot since. its the who will turn up question again

I think both Rib and Churchill will show up here. It is on their agenda and a natural progression in their respective careers post Royal Ascot; it is about six weeks post their respective engagements at Royal Ascot and is ideal, assuming all being well of course to both horses.

Unless Almanzor gatecrashes - his next earliest/intended target in this country - alluded to by his trainer could be the Juddmonte International on 23rd Aug. And at 2/1 each...one could do worse, I guess.
