GROUND CRUCIAL TO SUIT PLANS.

Ground conditions will dictate where Strong Suit is seen next following his withdrawal from the Prix Maurice de Gheest at Deauville on Sunday.

The Richard Hannon-trained four-year-old finished 10th behind Frankel in the Queen Anne and eighth behind Mayson in the July Cup over six furlongs, and it was thought the unique trip of six and a half furlongs at the weekend would have suited him down to the ground, but his preference for a fast surface saw connections pull the plug.
CHARLTON CONSIDERS NEXT STEP.

Roger Charlton's Dundonnell could be seen again later this month before potentially tackling some big-race entries in the autumn.

After finishing third in what looked one of the hottest juvenile maidens of the season at Newmarket's July meeting, the youngster justified cramped odds with a 12-length triumph at Lingfield on Saturday and is engaged in the Champagne Stakes at Doncaster, Ascot's Royal Lodge Stakes and the Dewhurst at Newmarket.

"I think Timeform increased his rating from 84 to 102, so they obviously took a bit of a shine to it," said Charlton.
