GOSDEN TARGETS NASSAU RAID.

This year's Markel Insurance Nassau Stakes at Glorious Goodwood is shaping up to be a cracker with John Gosden confirming his two top-class fillies Izzi Top and The Fugue are to be aimed at the race.

Izzi Top has gone from strength to strength this season, winning the Pretty Polly in Ireland last time out, while The Fugue was considered by many to be unlucky in the Oaks. She has since finished second in the Ribblesdale.
VISION GOING FOR CUP DOUBLE.

Ascot Gold Cup winner Colour Vision will put his reputation on the line in the Artemis Goodwood Cup on August 2.

Trained by Mark Johnston until this season, the four-year-old is unbeaten in two races since joining Saeed bin Suroor. He beat the Mahmood Al Zarooni-trained Opinion Poll last month, but will not have to face him this time as the latter has met with a setback.

"We are probably going to run Colour Vision and Lost In The Moment in the Goodwood Cup. Opinion Poll had a small setback - a minor bone issue - and is having an mid-season break to hopefully come back for British Champions Day," said Godolphin racing manager Simon Crisford
VINTAGE TEST FOR GHURAIR.

Impressive Newmarket debutant Ghurair will have his next start in the Veuve Clicquot Vintage Stakes at Glorious Goodwood on August 1.

The John Gosden-trained juvenile defied signs of greenness to win stylishly at Headquarters last week, earning a general 33-1 quote for the 2000 Guineas.

"Ghurair won a maiden on the July course and I'd like to run him in the Vintage Stak
es," said the Clarehaven handler of the Sheikh Hamdan-owned colt. "I'm keen on his chances, and hopefully his future."
