Archipenko heads for Sussex Stakes.

Archipenko heads stellar Sussex Stakes entry


GLOBETROTTING star Archipenko is among the 57 entries for the Group 1 BGC Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood on July 29.


Trainer Mike de Kock said: "We have entered Archipenko and the race is a possibility for him - we are keeping our options open at the moment. He could go for the Arlington Million once again but Goodwood would be an obvious alternative for him.

"He has shown that he is effective over a mile and he ran a very good race when winning the Summer Mile at Ascot last year. He also won well over a mile at Nad Al Sheba earlier this season, which was a very competitive Group 3.

"We won't be running him at Royal Ascot this year because he has done a fair bit of travelling already this year and he didn't travel that well back to England.

"I am returning to the UK next week and we will see how he's working before finalising where we go with him, but the BGC Sussex Stakes is certainly an option for him."

In a typically stellar Sussex entry, Gladiatorus, Paco Boy and Mastercraftsman - one of 13 Aidan O'Brien-trained entries for the £300,000 race - are also in the mix.
