Frankel in top trim for Sussex

Frankel is “bouncing” ahead of his quest to stretch his 100% record to 12 race at Glorious Goodwood next month.

Frankel in top trim for Sussex

The Qipco Sussex Stakes on August 1 will, as expected, be the next port of call for the four-year-old, who was last seen delivering an 11-length demolition in the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Sir Henry Cecil’s charge will then head to York for the Juddmonte International on August 22, when he tackles a mile and a quarter for the first time.

Teddy Grimthorpe, racing manager to owner Khalid Abdullah, told Sky Sports News: “Frankel is in very good form. He came back from Ascot in great nick – bouncing, eating, kicking. As for the future he’s heading towards the Sussex Stakes at Goodwood on August 1. Then, all being well, he’ll go to York for the Juddmonte.”
