Kirk's Cape takes on Ballydoyle again

Sylvester Kirk hopes that Opera Cape’s fine effort at Longchamp two weeks ago has not taken the edge off him for the Darley Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket tomorrow.

The two-year-old colt, owned by Jeff Smith, showed his class when running Horatio Nelson to a length and a half in the Group One Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere on Arc weekend.
