James Fanshawe reports The Tin Man to be in good order ahead of trying to reclaim his crown in the Betfair Sprint Cup at Haydock on Saturday. The Equiano gelding will bid to secure his first victory since landing the six-furlong Group One prize in 2018, having finished runner-up 12 months ago.

The Sprint Cup at Haydock is next on the agenda for Clive Cox's speedball Golden Horde.

He had to make do with an honourable third when taking on his elders in the July Cup at Newmarket, before finishing a close-up fifth in the Prix Maurice de Gheest at Deauville.                    Andrew Nelis Racing 

Judicial is likely to reappear early next month following his emphatic victory at Chester on Monday.

Connections will be tempted by the Group One on Merseyside only if they believe it looks winnable. Otherwise, Judicial will stick to Listed company on the Knavesmire. Camacho’s husband and assistant Steve Brown said: “I was discussing it with Dan (Downie, of owners Elite Racing). “I think it is likely we will wait until September and we’ll have a look at the Haydock Sprint. “If we feel that is too strong we’ll run in the Garrowby Stakes at York the following day..                              Andrew Nelis
