FALLEN HEADS FALMOUTH FIELD.

Coronation Stakes heroine Fallen For You is one of 21 confirmations for the Etihad Airways Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket on Friday.
The John Gosden-trained filly produced a career-best effort in storming to a three-and-a-quarter-length success at Royal Ascot.
In-form Gosden has also left in Elusive Kate, winner of the Prix Marcel Boussac last season but not seen since finishing eighth in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies' Turf, and Windsor Forest winner Joviality.
Sir Henry Cecil's Chachamaidee goes for Group One glory after looking slightly unlucky behind Joviality at the Royal meeting, being slowly away before finishing fast for second.

CITYSCAPE READY TO SERVE IT UP.

Connections of Cityscape are hopeful of a bold show in today's Coral-Eclipse at Sandown even though he is having his first crack at 10 furlongs.
The six-year-old was among the top rank over a mile last term and made quite an impression on his first start over nine furlongs, blazing to victory in the Dubai Duty Free at Meydan. He subsequently disappointed in the Champions Mile at Sha Tin.
"I don't think the trip is a big question, he stayed nine furlongs very well in Dubai. He made virtually all there and was in front from a long way and won by six lengths in a good time. This is slightly longer and is an unknown, but we would hope he sees it out," said Teddy Grimthorpe, racing manager for owner Khalid Abdullah.
