Inisherin fine after Newmarket frustration
'Inisherin is fine, he's perfect,' said Ryan.
'He spread a plate and they withdrew him, but it's past tense and gone now.
'He's in the Group One at York and he's also got the option of the Prix Maurice de Gheest, but I'll discuss what we do with Sheikh Mohammed Obaid nearer the time.'
A trip to France on August 10 would represent Inisherin's first outing on foreign soil, while he is as short as 8-1 with Paddy Power for success closer to his handler's Hambleton home and at a track he made a winning reappearance over a shorter distance earlier in the season.

Inisherin fine after Newmarket frustration
Owned by Sheikh Mohammed Obaid, the four-year-old was 17-2 to register a second Group One success in the Newmarket feature before being withdrawn at the start on veterinary advice, with the Yorkshire-based handler appearing frustrated in the aftermath. However, Ryan reported last year's Commonwealth Cup hero to be 100 per cent and is now looking ahead to the future – which could include a trip to Deauville for the Prix Maurice de Gheest or a move up to seven furlongs for York's newly upgraded Group One City of York Stakes on August 23. 'Inisherin is fine, he's perfect,' said Ryan. 'He spread a plate and they withdrew him, but it's past tense and gone now. 'He's in the Group One at York and he's also got the option of the Prix Maurice de Gheest, but I'll discuss what we do with Sheikh Mohammed Obaid nearer the time.'

Bin Suroor is Alert to German chance for Tornado
The Saeed bin Suroor-trained colt finished fourth in the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket before coming home a creditable sixth in the Derby. 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.'

Jean-Claude Rouget back in the big time courtesy of Leffard
Jean-Claude Rouget returned to the Group One winner's enclosure as Leffard got up to deny Trinity College in a pulsating finish to the Cygagames Grand Prix de Paris at ParisLongchamp. The dual Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe-winning trainer – who has had health battles and seen his string much reduced over the last year – was clearly emotional after Cristian Demuro put Leffard's head down right on the line to edge out Aidan O'Brien's Trinity College.
