Rosallion a massive drifter for the Sussex as Field Of Gold jockey confirmed with Colin Keane banned from Goodwood

SUPERSTAR miler Rosallion is a big drifter for next week's Sussex Stakes at Goodwood - as Field Of Gold's jockey was finally confirmed. Richard Hannon's multiple Group 1 winner has gone right out on the Betfair Exchange. Advertisement 1 Richard Hannon has some big decisions to make on where he runs Rosallion next - but it looks like it may not be in the Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood Credit: PA He was second-fav for the £1million contest next Wednesday but has been usurped by Aidan O'Brien's Henri Matisse. Rosallion's price on the Exchange has ballooned from 5 (4-1) to 9 (8-1), while he remains a general 7-2 chance on sportsbooks. Hannon - who saw his stable star lose the Queen Anne by a nose on his last run - had said the 7f City Of York at next month's Ebor Festival could be on the cards. But he also said the 1m Prix Jacques Le Marois (worth around £200,000 more to the winner than the City Of York) is a strong possibility too. Advertisement It's very unlikely he would do both given they are less than a week apart, with the French race on August 17 and City Of York August 23. Rosallion's drift came as William Buick was confirmed for the ride on Field Of Gold, who is already as short as 4-9 for the Sussex. Juddmonte's retained rider Colin Keane - who would have been on the top three-year-old - is banned from Goodwood after breaking whip rules at Sandown earlier this month. Buick was previously a jockey at Clarehaven and enjoys a good relationship with the horse's trainer John Gosden. Advertisement Most read in Horse Racing Oisin Murphy has been totally overlooked in light of his Gosden said: "William came in and rode Field Of Gold this morning and if he's free next Wednesday he will ride, providing Godolphin don't supplement one into the race. "They worked nicely together and it's all systems go for Goodwood. "William and I have a long association going back to the pre-Frankie Dettori era."

Orion's Belt stars in Newmarket opener for Richard Hannon

A narrowly-beaten fourth as an odds-on favourite for her debut at Salisbury four weeks ago, Richard Hannon's charge was a well-backed 15-8 market leader to open her account at the second time of asking. Her supporters will have had few concerns, with Orion's Belt sent straight to the lead by Ryan Moore and she was three and three-quarter lengths clear of the chasing pack at the line. Hannon's senior head lad, Tony Gorman, said: 'She's a very nice filly and that was exactly what we thought earlier on in the year. 'She was stepping up in trip today, but I think even at six (furlongs) she would have won because she was always in a lovely place. 'Once ours have had a run they know their jobs and she's loads of options. She's a big filly so we'll give her a bit of time and she's by a proper sire (Starman).' Royal Velvet (4-1) swooped fast and late to land the Trustatrader 20th Anniversary Fillies' Handicap under a typically well-timed ride from William Buick. Winning trainer William Knight said: 'Having Will Buick on board always helps and he gave her a great ride there. He doesn't know the filly and he just let her go through the gears. 'I was quite happy with where she was, seven (furlongs) is fast enough for her but she came good at the end. 'At some point in the future we might get some black type with her.'
