Black Caviar to swerve Sussex Stakes

A clash between the equine superstars of the northern and southern hemispheres has been ruled out at Goodwood, with brilliant Australian mare Black Caviar not among the entries for the Qipco Sussex Stakes on August 1.

Prize-money was to be boosted to £1m if Black Caviar and Frankel could be enticed for what would have been one of the races of all time, with the pair unbeaten in 31 outings between them.
