Askar Tau is on course for a second crack at the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot after pleasing trainer Marcus Tregoning in his prep run.

The Group Two-winning stayer was sixth behind Opinion Poll in the Henry II Stakes at Sandown last Thursday in his first race since he was fifth to Fame And Glory in the two-and-a-half-mile Group One in Berkshire last summer.
Morrison lining up major targets.

Hughie Morrison is considering the options for his two Investec Oaks runners, Shirocco Star and Coquet.

The former covered herself in glory when beaten only a neck in second behind Was at Epsom on Friday, while Coquet finished strongly to take sixth place after being badly hampered at a crucial stage.

The Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot is a possibility for both fillies, with Shirocco Star also having the Darley Irish Oaks as an alternative, while a trip to France is possible for Coquet.
