Dubawi on target for Royal meeting

DUBAWI is set for a quick reappearance at Royal Ascot at York on Tuesday week after his fine effort in the Derby.

The Irish 2000 Guineas winner finished third behind Motivator at Epsom after failing to last out the mile and a half. He was reported yesterday to have come out of the race in fine shape and he could drop back to a mile for the St James’s Palace Stakes.

“He seems to have come out of the race very well and was in good form this morning,” said Godolphin racing manager Simon Crisford.
