Racing News Round-Up
- Richard Hughes row continues after America Queen withdrawal: Richard Hughes and owner Jaber Abdullah have been left furious after America Queen was withdrawn from the Irish 1,000 Guineas at the Curragh on veterinary grounds. Hughes insists the filly has an unusual natural gait and says he had taken advice after a similar issue before the Nell Gwyn, with the dispute now creating a major talking point around future British-trained runners heading to Ireland.
- Royal Ascot picture shifts as Portcullis misses St James’s Palace Stakes: Portcullis, the unbeaten King Charles and Queen Camilla-owned colt trained by John and Thady Gosden, will not run in the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot. The Frankel colt remains a horse of real potential, but connections are taking a patient approach rather than throwing him straight into one of the meeting’s hottest Group 1 races.
