City Light on target for Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot

City Light won all his three races before heading to Royal meeting in 2018. He won the all-weather sprint championship at Lingfield on Good Friday. The French-trained five-year-old's campaign has been built around the six-furlong Group One. Trainer Stephane Wattel has deliberately given him just one run this season. He was beaten half a length by Inns Of Court in Maisons-Laffitte in April.
