Sulamani could run at Ascot

Sulamani, brilliant winner of the French Derby, could take on the cream of European middle-distance horses in the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Diamond Stakes at Ascot next month.

But if connections decide to give the Pascal Bary-trained colt a summer break then he would return in the Prix Niel at Longchamp in September en route to the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe-Lucien Barriere the following month.
