Aljamaaheer is Summer sizzler.

Aljamaaheer gained a well-deserved success with victory in the Fred Cowley MBE Memorial Summer Mile Stakes at Ascot.
Third in the Lockinge at Newbury and behind only Declaration Of War in the Queen Anne at Royal Ascot, the Roger Varian-trained colt was heavily backed for what was a drop in class before being sent off the 6-4 favourite.
Keen in the early stages as Godolphin pacemaker Famous Poet set what looked a strong gallop, Paul Hanagan's mount gradually engaged top gear and always looked likely to win when hitting the front in the final 100 yards. Mull Of Killough ran well to take second, a length back, with Guest Of Honour another half-length away in third.
