Rosallion To Miss Sussex Stakes Due To Respiratory Infection

[Wandering Eyes]

Star miler Rosallion (Ire) (Blue Point {Ire}) will miss the Qatar Sussex Stakes at Goodwood on Wednesday due to a respiratory infection.

Runner-up to Notable Speech (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) in the 2,000 Guineas on his three-year-old debut, Rosallion went one better in the Irish edition before turning the tables on his Newmarket conqueror when landing the St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Richard Hannon's colt was again set to clash with Notable Speech, who disappointed at the royal meeting, and the St James's Palace runner-up Henry Longfellow (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) in the Group 1 feature on day two of the Qatar Goodwood Festival.

However, he was officially declared a non-runner shortly after 11am on Tuesday, with a respiratory infection put forward as the reason for his defection.
