Would he have recovered from the pull-muscle and turn up at Royal Ascot for the St James's Palace a week on wednesday? Let's hope so along with TDH. Pheonix Of Spain beware!

Will Magna Grecia turn up? Let's hope so as it could determine the best 3 yr old miler; the betting suggests he'd with backers lined up for 8 and over (here). If declared, he'd be closer to 4/1 instead of the present 7/1; Pheonix Of Spain (PoS) and TDH are generally 7/4 and 7/2 respectively with the major bookies.

He'd be a gonna; matched at 14, and no taker at all since. PoS and TDH both shortened.

The market indicated Magna Grecia (MG) would be absent. As for Persian King (PK) he was taken out of the SJP some time ago. Maybe PK will show up for the Sussex or Champions Stakes in Ireland as he clealr did not stay 10f well enough to be considered a serious challenger for 10f Gp1 races.

Persian King was trapped out wide and just touched off in the French Derby over 1 mile two and half furlongs where the track record was broken. I don`t think there is any doubt he`is capable of contesting and winning any Gp1 over this distance alongside his conqueror at Chantilly.

Persian King massively overhyped and now getting found out, just like Magna Grecia.

that french derby winner might be a bit special, the arc winner perhaps?

Guineas form finally vindicated. I'm saying this sort of tongue in cheek but I really believe that was a top class piece of form stands' side that day. MG just got injured and hasn't been able to live up to it. Shine So Bright won a high class group 2 at York and has suffered for that exertion since, as has Laurens.

With the benefit of hindsight a better decision for the horse would be not to have run him today on his 1st race back on this atrocious ground. I hope he'd not be retired after today unless his previous injury is the cause of his poor run - he beat the winner in the 2000G.

He's been retired to stud after a dismal run on saturday. He's probably will be unable to recapture his previous form post the injury; correct decision.
