He was only beaten 6 1/2 lengths or so and the winner broke the track record. I would guess that Stormont has only been in a race that fast when he won the Group 2 in Germany. 5 Furlongs in a few 1/100ths over 56 and a time of shade over 1.02 for the 5 1/2.

That's good to hear that Corey wants the ride again.
I thought it was a very good run, considering the time he has had off. I still think he could make his mark over there if he is over all of his problems. You only have to see how easily he won that Gr2 in Germeny to realise he has plenty of ability.
He should have finished much closer in the King's Stand at Royal Ascot. He managed to find all the trouble there was in that race.
Thanks for the update though. Much appreciated. Will show my father the replay later this evening. He willl be pleased to see 'his' horse back in action again.
Cheers.
