    • Group 1 winner Power Blue is aiming toward the seven-furlong G1 Goffs Vincent O'Brien National Stakes next month, according to trainer Adrian Murray. The son of Space Blues ran second in the G3 Marble Hill Stakes in May before a fifth-place run at Royal Ascot in the G2 Coventry Stakes. Back in the frame with a third in the G2 Railway Stakes to True Love (No Nay Never) at the Curragh in July, the colt defeated that filly in the Phoenix Stakes earlier this month. “I'm looking forward to the National Stakes with Power Blue and stepping up a furlong might even suit him better,” said Murray, who confirmed that Group 1 scorer Bucanero Fuerte (Wootton Bassett) will run on the same card in the G1 Flying Five Stakes after his win in the G3 Phoenix Sprint. “You would have to be looking at him being a possible Guineas horse and he would be entitled to be entered for those races. “It will all depend on how he progresses from two to three but he's done nothing but improve and he's always been competitive, even when he has been beaten. Win or lose, he always shows up on the day and he ran a blinder the other day. “His form is top-drawer stuff and he's proving he's a top-drawer horse.” The post Power Blue Handed National Test appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Surprise G1 Sussex Stakes hero Qirat (Showcasing) has been supplemented for the G1 Sky Bet City Of York Stakes this coming Saturday. The Juddmonte runner, supplemented for £40,000, will face the rerouted multiple Group 1 winner Rosallion (Blue Point) in the newly promoted Group 1. Trained by Ralph Beckett, Qirat was 150-1 in the Sussex. “It looks the right race for him and Ralph felt strongly about it,” said Barry Mahon, racing manager for Juddmonte. “The owners are happy to go along with it, he showed plenty of pace in the Sussex and while a mile is his optimum, I don't think he'll have any problem dropping back to seven.” Rosallion lost out in a photo to Qirat in the Sussex and joined the City Of York field due to a small training setback. Mahon said, “It looks like we could meet Rosallion again and we know he's a top-class horse, but he obviously had a little issue last week which stopped him from running in France. We're looking forward to taking him on again and hopefully we'll be able to maintain our position from Goodwood.” Others signed on to the City Of York include Group 3 winner Seagulls Eleven (Galileo Gold), who was also supplemented; Andrew Balding's Never So Brave (No Nay Never), a winner of the G2 Summer Mile; and G3 Prix Paul de Moussac hero Maranoa Charlie (Wootton Bassett) for trainer Christopher Head. The 13-horse field includes the 2024 G1 Locking Stakes hero Audience (Iffraaj) for John and Thady Gosden. On the City of York undercard a dozen horses go forward for the G3 Sky Bet Strensall Stakes, among them Harry Charlton's King's Gambit (Saxon Warrior), who was third in the Listed Wolferton Stakes at Royal Ascot in June. Andrew Balding's Fox Legacy (Lope De Vega) is entered, as is Charlie Appleby's First Conquest (Teofilo), who won the G3 Dubai Millennium Stakes at Meydan in January.

    • Certainly won't be. If there has to be one, it needs to be at the general public and political level, not conducted in racing media.
