AFrankel has shown he=s the best 3-year- old around and now he has to prove it against older horses, namely Canford Cliffs. He hasn=t met a horse of that calibre before, so this will tell us where he ranks among all the milers around today. A lot has been written and said about tactics, but we have options with Frankel, and in the end I=m sure it will be a case of the best horse winning.@ Trainer Sir Henry Cecil added, AEverybody is very excited about the race and it=s important for racing, but I prefer to keep quiet and let the horse do the talking. He=s definitely growing up and is getting much more sensible, so it=s easier to do what you want to do with him. The main thing is that it=s a fair race and the best horse wins.@ Cont. p2

G1 Sussex S. cont. Canford Cliffs, who arrived here 12 months ago as the sophomore with it all to prove, duly picked up the elder Rip Van Winkle (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) with some style to add to his prior Classic victory in the G1 Irish 2000 Guineas. After an easy subsequent success in the G1 Lockinge S. at Newbury May 14 and a comfortable follow-up in Royal Ascot=s G1 Queen Anne S.--when he overturned the great (Ire) (Anabaa)--a month later, he arrives for this ADuel on the Downs@ with all the confidence of his customarily bullish stable behind him. ACanford Cliffs has completed his preparation and everything has gone smoothly,@ trainer Richard Hannon commented. AWe have done all the talking, and now Henry [Cecil] and I will leave it to the two horses. Obviously, tactics will play an important part, but I=ll leave that to Hughesie. We have a lot of respect for Frankel, but we know the strengths of our horse and, hopefully, we will be the ones celebrating afterwards. We took the scalp of Goldikova, and now we are after Frankel--it doesn=t come any better than this.@ Freddy Head sends across Saeed Nasser Al Romaithi=s Rajsaman (Fr) (Linamix {Fr}), who is likely to be overlooked with the focus on the main two, but who has smart form in his native France to recommend him if they fail to fire. Successful when receiving seven pounds from Byword (GB) () in the G2 Prix du Muguet over this trip at Saint-Cloud May 1, he was third behind Goldikova and Cirrus des Aigles (Fr) (Even Top {Ire}) in the G1 Prix d=Ispahan over an extended nine furlongs at Longchamp three weeks later. AHe=s very well, but whether he=s good enough is another story,@ Head told PA Sport. Godolphin=s Rio de la Plata (Rahy), who justified J “TDN Rising Star” J status when winning the G2 Vintage S. here as a 2-year-old, was far from disgraced when fourth in the Queen Anne last time. Last year=s G1 Premio Vittorio di Capua and G1 Premio Roma winner is no back-number, despite his inflated odds. ARio de la Plata ran well at Royal Ascot and he came out of that race in good shape,@ Saeed bin Suroor commented. AA mile is the best distance for him, and he won two Group 1 races in Italy last season. This looks a very tough race, but he deserves to take his chance, and I am hoping that he can run with credit.@

As a woman and owner/ part-owner of a couple of race horses in the past few years, I have to respond to Barry Irwin's claim that people run from racing because of the medications and race-day Lasix. He claims racing has the "cooties" because of it and that people don't want to get into racing because of it. Please, spare me It is always informative when Mr. Irwin takes the the lecture. I do agree that people stay away from time to share his thoughts with us (TDN Op/Ed,7-25- ownership due to the fact that it=s not a profitable 1 1 ).

I There has been much written lately about race-day have asked my younger wealthy friends to get into a medications, and I agree with Mr. Irwin that it is an horse, and not one of them said no because the horses issue that greatly affects the public perception of the are on drugs. They said it=s not profitable, and their sport. However, there is another side to the medication equation that nobody seems to mention, and that is the trust managers or financial managers wouldn't allow withholding of medication on, or just before race-day. the investment because it loses money.
