Race preview
George Boughey picked up a live-wire when he took over the training of CONQUISTADOR and, given he had a legitimate excuse for a disappointing run at Newmarket last month (he never recovered after stumbling at the start), the lightly-raced gelding has a good chance of getting back on track. His commendable third-placed finish in the Palace of Hollyroodhouse Stakes at Royal Ascot is hard to ignore and a repeat of that level could suffice. Expert Agent, Antiphon and Bernardo O'Reilly are feared most.
