Meld Stakes next for Purview, says Weld
Winner of a Dundalk maiden on his debut, he briefly looked like giving Delacroix a race before the displayed his turn of foot, but Epsom third and Curragh fourth Tennessee Stud finished behind him to give further credence to the form.
'He's a big, immature colt and we are delighted with the way he's coming forward. I've always said that next year will be his year,' Weld told Racing TV.
'The plan is to look at the Meld, definitely.
'I was always confident about my fella, even though Delacroix went to the Derby and was very disappointing, he then came back and ran a brilliant race.
'My fella is what he is himself, if you know what I mean, he's a likeable colt and I expect him to run a very nice race.'

The conundrum at the heart of Tottenham's £55m Mohammed Kudus swoop - and why Thomas Frank has not been deterred, writes MATT BARLOW
The last time Mohammed Kudus was seen at Tottenham he was disappearing down the tunnel in disgrace after a red card leading to a five-match ban and a stern ticking off from his boss. It had been an eventful derby game for Kudus. He opened with terrific zeal, causing problems for Pedro Porro and firing West Ham ahead before Spurs replied with four goals inside half an hour and he lost his head.

Sayidah Dariyan swoops late for Summer success
The Richard Hughes-trained three-year-old was sent off the 9-4 favourite on the back of her run at Royal Ascot when she was fourth, beaten just over a length, in the Group One Commonwealth Cup. Dropped in class to a Group Three and back in against her own sex, the 9-4 favourite could be spotted travelling ominously well with two furlongs to run but she had a wall of horses in front of her. Loughnane managed to weave his way through the pack to take up the running and the race was over in a matter of strides. Nighteyes, who herself had outrun market expectations in the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes at Ascot, stayed on for a length-and-a-half second, catching the returning Celandine, last year's Lowther winner who was making her first start of the season. Loughnane told Racing TV: 'Richard told me to be as confident as I could on her as she relaxes lovely behind, she conserves so much energy and she's got an electric turn of foot when you let her down. 'She ran well at Ascot but I'll leave future placing to Richard and the team. She's in great nick and is definitely a filly on the up. 'She's got the best mind ever. She yawns in the gate and when they open she gets down to it. 'To be honest I'd have liked a smoother passage through, but I just had to wait. It probably did me a favour as it meant I didn't get there too soon.' It capped a good 10 minutes for Hughes who also won at Ascot with Sayidah Hard Spun.

Cinderella's Dream takes top spot in Falmouth Stakes
Trained by Charlie Appleby and ridden by William Buick, Cinderella's Dream needed to reverse Royal Ascot form with her Duke of Cambridge Stakes conqueror Crimson Advocate, while Aidan O'Brien's three-year-old January provided a fresh test for the Godolphin runner. Cinderella's Dream (5-2) looked the have the measure of Crimson Advocate only for January (6-4 favourite) to deliver her challenge, with Buick's mount battling all the way to the line to prevail by half a length, with a length and three-quarters back to Crimson Advocate in third. 'I did think when she hit the rising ground it would take a tough one to get past her,' said Appleby, who was winning the Falmouth for the first time. 🔵 Cinderella's Dream – back in business with @Tattersalls1766 Falmouth Stakes glory — Racing TV (@RacingTV) July 11, 2025 'I'll be honest, I don't know if she was firing on all cylinders at Ascot. We always look for excuses when we're beaten so we used the bend and the 3lb penalty, but she's been round Del Mar and you ain't going to get many tighter turns than that, so I don't think we can say going round Ascot was going to be too much of a challenge for her. 'Will was just happy over a mile on a straight track as maybe a mile round a bend is sharp enough. 'She won her maiden at Lingfield and then we went up to Thirsk to win her novice. She's knee high to a grasshopper but she's as tough as teak and I'm delighted for her as she's been so consistent and for her to win a Group One here in Europe is richly deserved. 'We're very much going to work back from the Breeders' Cup Filly And Mare Turf. It annoyed me when that got away for us last year, so we'll go back for a crack at that, how we get there we'll work that out.' Buick said: 'She's all class. She's been unlucky a couple of times, but today she's put it all together. 'What a game filly she is, it was a ding-dong between two good fillies, it was a good race and she had give the second filly 9lb, it's never easy. 'I'm just so pleased for her, she's been a wonderful filly all through and I'm just delighted she's got a domestic Group One next to her name.'
