Oxx to saddle just two runners at Royal meeting

John Oxx will have a very select team of just two for Royal Ascot this year in Saddler’s Rock and My Titania.

The pair will contest the Gold Cup and Coronation Stakes respectively, with both promising to be suited by drying ground at the Berkshire track.

Oxx is desperate for the rain to stay away for My Titania, a daughter of Sea The Stars who was forced to miss the Qipco 1000 Guineas with a minor setback and was ruled out of the Irish equivalent due to the rain at the Curragh.
