WORKFORCE looks poised for a second crack at the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes after delighting connections in a gallop at Newmarket.

Workforce has been given the go-ahead to run in the Breeders’ Cup Turf at Churchill Downs in November – as long as conditions are suitable.

Dead heats are quite a rarity in racing but memories of Nunthorpe day in 1997 were evoked as Confront and Dream Eater could not be split in the Sky Bet City of York Stakes.
