well backed, made the most of another good opening to retain his unbeaten record for Andrew Balding, well placed by his new trainer as opposed to being improved, simply a class above a weak Group 2 field; mid-field, went with zest, good headway from 4f out, produced to lead under 2f out, edged right, kept on well, won easily.

had winning run ended ended but didn't look out of place up in grade, and he may make more of an impact at this level another day, his rider giving him a lot to do in a race that wasn't strongly run; dropped out, headway when hung left over 3f out, chased leaders 2f out, effort flattened out; he's come an awfully long way in a short space of time and may do better still.

Possibly a sign of things to come in a post-Stradivarius staying scene, a horse who was sent off at 33/1 against him - before being soundly beaten - in the Goodwood Cup the strong 6/4 favourite, Spanish Mission's task made even easier by the way the race was run, the tempo only really picking up in the final 1m, his main market rival Revolver - sat some 12 lengths off the lead - having to do a lot of running to make his challenge. SPANISH MISSION (USA) well backed, made the most of another good opening to retain his unbeaten record for Andrew Balding, well placed by his new trainer as opposed to being improved, simply a class above a weak Group 2 field; mid-field, went with zest, good headway from 4f out, produced to lead under 2f out, edged right, kept on well, won easily.
