Papal Bull heads Princess of Wales's entries

Lewis Porteous

LAST year's winner Papal Bull, heads 17 entries for this year's renewal of the Group 2 Princess of Wales's WBX.com Stakes at Newmarketon July 10.

The son of Montjeu looked as good as ever when beaten just over two lengths in what now looks a very good renewal of the Coronation Cup at Epsom in June.

Papal Bull, who has looked a tricky ride in the past, put up a career best effortthat day when beaten by subsequent Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud first and second Youmzain and Soldier Of Fortune.

The Group 2 event over 1m4f has also attracted last year's fourth Lucarno, who went on to lift the St Leger after going down by just three lengths in this event. Trainer John Gosden will be hoping his Classic winner can find his form after two disappointing efforts so far this term.

Other notable contenders include Richard Fahey's consistent mare Anna Pavlova and Luca Cumani's improving four year-old Lion Sands, who looked well worth a try in better company when winning the Listed Fred Archer Stakes over course and distance last Saturday.

Cumani could also be represented by another four year-old in the shape of Speed Gifted, who finished fourth in the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot last month.

Godolphin could rely on Ascot Gold Cup fifth Sagara and Brazilian import Happy Boy.

Hola dulce:

I bet Soldier o fortune , Youmzain and Sagara will be good rivals, but My corazon is with Papal Bull no mather wath. ;)

Your boy did pretty well. :)

Papal Bull set to face German Derby winner in Cologne


Papal Bull (red cap): looked a reformed character:D at Ascot and could go one better

Keith Hamer

PAPAL BULL bids to show his fine run in the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes was no fluke when he lines up for the Rheinland-Pokal der Sparkasse at Cologne onSunday.

The five-year-old, trained by Sir Michael Stoute, put up a career-best performance when running the brilliant Duke Of Marmalade to half a length at Ascot three weeks ago.

He now aims to gain his first win at the highest level in this GermanGroup 1 over 1m4f.

"Ryan Moore has been booked to ride and Michael reports him to be well and good. All we can do is hope for the best," said David Stack for owners the Papal Bull syndicate.
The son of Montjeu faces five rivals, headed by German Derby winner Kamsin.

"We're giving a lot of weight to this year's German Derby winner," Stack went on.

"In the ratings they rate us 126, him 116 and that would be giving 10lb. But if he runs like he did at Ascot and proves that he's rated 132 then he would show his Timeform rating wasn't a fluke.

"He is a very talented horse and it's all credit to Michael."

Hey, we're missed you!!!

GO PAPAL!:cool:

Only 3rd, very disappointing.

Don't think Ryan Moore will get man plaudits for the ride, but he was well beaten.
