Connections of Solow on course for Sussex showdown

Connections of Solow would relish the opportunity of seeing their excellent colt go toe to toe with Gleneagles in the Qatar Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood.

Freddy Head’s French ace, three times a Group One scorer, produced one of the best performances at Royal Ascot when he dismantled a strong field in the Queen Anne Stakes.

Next up is the £1million Sussex Stakes, in which he could face a formidable foe in dual Guineas winner Gleneagles, who added to his Classic gains with an easy success in the St James’s Palace Stakes at the Royal meeting.
