Mike de Kock has unveiled an audacious plan for King's Stand Stakes favourite Shea Shea to step up in trip for next month's July Cup.
The multiple South African champion trainer has been training the six-year-old uphill in an attempt to familiarise the Al Quoz Sprint winner with Ascot's stiff finish.
Looking further ahead, though, De Kock has no fears of Shea Shea tackling six furlongs at Newmarket on July 13.
Speaking in front of a gathering of international media at his Abington Place stables, he said: "I'm very happy with what's happened so far. He'll have been here five weeks by next Tuesday and has done well at hill work.
