Ed Walker is hopeful his patience can be rewarded when Almaqam puts his Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe credentials to the test in the Prix Foy next month.

Delacroix gets the chance to confirm Coral-Eclipse form with Ombudsman in what looks a fascinating renewal of the Juddmonte International at York.

Charlie Appleby is confident Distant Storm is heading to York as a “big player” for Wednesday’s Tattersalls Acomb Stakes.

Danon Decile will add a global flavour to this year’s Juddmonte International Stakes at York. But 20 years ago it was the Italian job, as Electrocutionist sent sparks flying on the Knavesmire.

The next destination for Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe favourite Kalpana is expected to be decided by the end of this week.
