Canford Cliffs

Ballydoyle's four-year-old Rip Van Winkle IRE (Galileo IRE) looked fit and in control of the Group 1 £300,000 Sussex Stakes until the close when three-year-old wonder horse Canford Cliffs IRE (Tagula IRE) dug in and overtook last year's winner by a head.

Trainer Richard Hannon said CC is the finest horse he has ever trained.

His star will race in either the Prix Moulin at Longchamp or the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot.

Unfortunately, Ballydoyle's Beethoven made sure Premio Loco USA ((Prized USA) could not get closer than 3 lengths to the leaders.
