'It's very likely that he'll run'

Summarized by: Live Sports Direct
 

Trueshan missed the Gold Cup and Queen Alexandra Stakes at Royal Ascot. Alan King wants to get a run into Trueshans before his Goodwood Cup bid. Trueshan finished sixth in the JenningsBet Northumberland Plate last year. He could carry 10st 8lb in next Saturday's £150,000 handicap. His rating of 120 puts him 15lb ahead of nearest rival John Leeper.

Trueshan won at Goodwood and went on to land the Prix du Cadran at Longchamp and a second Long Distance Cup at Ascot in 2021. Dry weather has restricted him to one outing this season, a reappearance win in a conditions event at Nottingham. Trueshans has been set 10st 8lb.

The Greatest Ever Race is a new Racing Post series. It kicks off on Monday, June 20th. Sir Mark Prescott, Rishi Persad, Richard Hoiles, Nick Luck and Jessica Harrington are the big names who will be nominated.
