Golden Horde (Ire) (Lethal Force {Ire}) has exited his G1 Commonwealth Cup victory last week “really well” and is set to tackle elders in the G1 Darley July Cup on July 11, trainer Clive Cox said.
Golden Horde was emulating his young sire with a Royal Ascot Group 1 victory, Lethal Force having taken the G1 Diamond Jubilee S. in 2013 for Cox, and the 3-year-old will also attempt to follow his sire into the July Cup winner’s enclosure.
“He’s come out of it really well,” Cox said. “He took the race super. It was a great performance.
“It’s our intention to go for the July Cup and we’re very happy with him. That’s precisely where we’re heading, all being well.”
