Bin Suroor is Alert to German chance for Tornado
He then headed to Ascot to contest the Group Three Hampton Court Stakes, where he dropped back to 10 furlongs to finish runner-up behind Aidan O'Brien's Trinity College.
His next port of call is the Grosser Dallmayr-Preis, known also as the Bayerisches Zuchtrennen, a Group One event run over a mile and a quarter and a race Bin Suroor has enjoyed success in before as Kutub won it in 2001 and Benbatl prevailed in 2018.
'He is doing very well, he worked on Tuesday,' the trainer said of Tornado Alert.
'The plan is to run him in Germany at the end of the month.
'The race is on the 27th at Munich, the Grosser Dallmayr-Preis.
'It's over a mile and a quarter, which is his trip. He's been in really good form.'

Newsboy's Nap and other racing tips for 5 UK meetings on Wednesday
Newsboy's nap selection for Wednesday, July 16, is the harry Eustace-trained Ancient Times (4.30) at Catterick. His next best is Yarmouth runner Schrodinger's Cat (6.40) TRAVEL back for success with ANCIENT TIMES (4.30, nap) in the 5th Regiment Royal Artillery Handicap at Catterick on Wednesday. The Harry Eustace trainee made a victorious start to the season in a Doncaster handicap over five furlongs before stepping up in trip to six at Goodwood, where he was only beaten half a length by Pop Dancer. Remaining at six furlongs, the seven-year-old headed back north to Catterick where he just got his neck in front of Arecibo in a veterans' handicap. He dropped back to five at Pontefract where he was again a half-length second but the step back up to six at a site of past glories will suit the son of Exceed And Excel. SCHRODINGER'S CAT (6.40, nb) is ready to burst into life in the Diomed EBF Restricted Maiden Stakes at Yarmouth. The Harry Charlton-trained colt has just failed to get in front on his last two outings at Nottingham and Windsor but can use all the experience gained from those two runs to claim victory.

Aidan O'Brien snaps up legendary late jockey's son who's the ‘double of his dad' for big ride
He'll be wearing some very famous silks RUNS IN THE FAMILY Aidan O'Brien snaps up legendary late jockey's son who's the 'double of his dad' for big ride Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AIDAN O'BRIEN has snapped up a legendary late jockey's son - who's 'the double of his dad' - for a big ride. Every jockey dreams of riding for the iconic Ballydoyle boss. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Paddy Smullen - who punters think looks 'the double' of his late dad Pat - has been giving his big racing break by Aidan O'Brien 3 Tragic Pat, seen here after winning the Derby on Harzand, died aged just 43 after bravely battling pancreatic cancer Credit: Rex 3 Paddy will race in the iconic black and white silks made so famous by his legendary dad Credit: PA And, on Tuesday, Paddy Smullen gets the chance to do just that in some very famous silks. Paddy, whose sole career victory came aboard Dermot Weld's Grappa Nonino at Dundalk in March, is the son of the late, great Pat Smullen. The nine-time Irish Champion Jockey died aged 43 in September 2020 having lost his battle with pancreatic cancer. Smullen Snr - who won the 2016 Derby on Harzand and 2003 2,000 Guineas on Refuse To Bend - was famed for his 'enduring partnership' with Weld. So it was fitting that his hugely promising jockey son's first winner would come on one of Weld's horses. He will be aiming to chalk one up for O'Brien on Tuesday, though, as he gets the leg up on Mont St Michel. The 10-11 favourite for a 1m6f race at Killarney runs in the iconic Kyprios black and white silks of Moyglare Stud. Smullen Snr wore the same when he rode Refuse To Bend to victory in the 2003 2,000 Guineas. Mont St Michel, a four-year-old colt, was close up behind the now-retired Kyprios on his last run and is co-owned by the Coolmore juggernaut of John Magnier, Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith. Paddy, 17, spoke so well after his breakthrough win - and explained how much it meant to him to follow in his old's man footsteps. He said: "I wasn't thinking about winning but just getting as good a position as I can. "I came out in front and was delighted. It doesn't feel real at all. It all went way too fast, it's amazing. "There's lots of sentimental value as well. It's brilliant to follow in his footsteps. "Dermot and the whole family have been amazing to me. I'm happy to repay them for what they've done for me." One punter commented afterwards: "Got shivers when I saw DK Weld and P Smullen on the card… absolutely brilliant, best of luck in the future." While another wrote: "Best of luck Paddy, your father would be so proud of you." And it's clear O'Brien clearly sees some of that talent too, jocking him up on a potential stayer of the future.
