Re: Horse Racing
July glory for irresistible Force

Quote:
Lethal Force confirmed himself the leading sprinter in Europe as he made all to land the Darley July Cup at Newmarket.
Adam Kirby blazed up the stands rail on the Clive Cox-trained grey as he showed there was no fluke about his Diamond Jubilee Stakes win from Royal Ascot, again proving too good for closest pursuer Society Rock, this time by a length and a half.
The four-year-old (9-2) was kicked on by Kirby with a quarter-mile to run and despite a visible jink along the way he ran on strongly to beat James Fanshawe's runner in record time. Slade Power was third, a further three-quarters of a length away.
