  • Cirrus Des Aigles Primed for King George VI & Queen Elizabeth
    Ascot Racecourse Media Release for immediate release, Wednesday, July 10, 2013 Cirrus Des Aigles primed for King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by Betfair) at Ascot Corine Barande-Barbe is looking forward to seeing her stable star Cirrus Des Aigles return to Ascot for the £1-million King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (sponsored by Betfair), the tremendous highlight of the Betfair Weekend on Saturday, July 27. The Group One mile and a half contest has 15 top horses going forward following the latest scratchings deadline on Tuesday, July 9, details of which are revealed today. Cirrus Des Aigles captured the QIPCO Champion Stakes at Ascot in October, 2011, and found only the brilliant Frankel a length and three quarters too strong in the same race last year. The seven-year-old, rated the best horse in training at the start of this year, made a belated return to action following a ligament injury in the Group One Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud on June 23, and faded to finish fifth behind Novellist, beaten four and a half lengths. He is currently Betfair Sportsbook's 5/2 second favourite for the Ascot showpiece behind St Nicholas Abbey (2/1), who went down by a neck to Cirrus Des Aigles when they took each other on in the Group One Dubai Sheema Classic at Meydan in March, 2012. Barande-Barbe, who trains in Chantilly, France, reported: "We are looking forward to bringing Cirrus Des Aigles over to Ascot again. "We gave him a precautionary entry in the Grand Prix de Vichy on July 17 in case I wanted to give him a prep-run but it is a bit too near the King George and a bit too far from my stables.

Weights: 3yo 126lb; 4yo+ 128lb. Allowances: fillies and mares about 3.3lb. Total Prize Money (EUR) €300,000 1st €171,420, 2nd €68,580, 3rd €34,290, 4th €17,130, 5th €8,580. (8 Starters) Overseas Expert Column by Wally Pyrah An all-star cast includes wonder mare GOLDIKOVA –winner of 14 Group 1’s – and considered the best equine female in world. The Freddie Head trained mare will be an odds-on favourite to provide back-to-back victories in a race she dominated twelve months ago. Connections took a gamble when they ran her on unsuitably soft ground over 1600mtrs in the Prix Jacques le Marois at Deauville in August and paid the price. The wonder-filly was caught close home by IMMORTAL VERSE with Italian rival WORTHADD back in 9th place. Back to her optimum trip and favoured fast ground possibly, GOLDIKOVA will take a lot of beating. UK challenger DREAM AHEAD steps up in trip from 1200mtrs following two Group 1 victories in the ultra-competitive July Cup at Newmarket, and Betfred Sprint Cup at Haydock. Trainer David Simcock has always believed he is capable of winning over 1400mtrs plus and here will be his chance to prove it. Irish trained challenger BEWITCHED is an interesting challenger. Following her 1400mtrs success over Group class ZOFFANY in Ireland in May, the DANSILI filly subsequently disappointed when made favourite for the Golden Jubilee over 1200mtrs at Royal Ascot in June.
