Graham Motion may bring Spendarella back to Royal Ascot next year following her gallant display in chasing home Coronation Strakes heroine Inspiral.

The English-born trainer, who is one of the leading trainers in the States, has hit the bar on a couple of occasions with his runners at the Royal meeting with Sharing, who was also runner-up in the Coronation Stakes back in 2020 also running a big race. Motion also brought Kentucky Derby winner Animal Kingdom over in 2013.
