SADDLER'S ROCKS AT GOODWOOD.

Saddler's Rock ground out a determined victory in the Artemis Goodwood Cup under Johnny Murtagh.

John Oxx's stayer was the 2-1 favourite to exact his revenge on Godolphin's Colour Vision, who had beaten him into third in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot in June but had to carry a penalty for that Group One triumph.

Saddler's Rock wore down Electrolyser inside the final two furlongs and found plenty for Johnny Murtagh to take the prize by a length from the fast-finishing Askar Tau. Colour Vision was under pressure early in the straight, but stuck to his task doggedly to pick up minor honours in third
