Positioned in the last trio early by Andrea Atzeni, the 11-4 favourite was delivered with the same potent acceleration as he had been at Epsom to strike the front 1 1/2 furlongs out and deny the race=s surprise package by a half length. AHe=s a very straightforward horse and since his gelding operation he=s improved and turned a corner this year,@ Atzeni said. AHe travelled well and picked up nicely and ground-wise, he=s versatile. If anything, I got there sooner than I=d have liked and that isn=t really his style. We actually thought he was a soft-ground horse but Sheikh Mohammed Obaid always said he was a fast-ground horse and he was right.

Arriving back in Berkshire with the same indomitable spirit and physical superiority that had ensured the first part of the double, the 6-4 favourite tanked along under James Doyle behind the rapid Kachy (GB) (Kyllachy {GB}) and the writing was already on the wall heading to two out. Allowed to gain command a furlong later, he was in the clear for precious seconds but in the end he needed the line desperately as Dream of Dreams (Ire) (Dream Ahead) lunged. When the winning post came, there was only a head between the bay and the flashy chestnut who had forged on a stride after. Luckily for the Godolphin team and Charlie Appleby, the Ascot gods who had gifted so much to Frankie Defoe and Andrea Atzeni | racingfotos.com Dettori on Thursday had some spare for this particular defining moment in the meeting=s history.

The petrol gauge was running a bit empty but I=ve not ridden many who want to win like he does.@ While there was no Battaash (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) this time, Blue Point had to draw on reserves to see off a different type of sprinter over a trip that draws out his brilliance to the limit. He had proven himself over six on several occasions, including when setting the track record here in the 2017 G3 Pavilion S., and his record at Ascot is exemplary. His sole defeat at this venue came when third in the G1 Commonwealth Cup in that year, when Appleby viewed him as a work in progress who needed time to fulfil his true potential.
