Lady Iman supplemented for Nunthorpe Stakes
Ger Lyons stated his intention to send the high-ranking juvenile to the Knavesmire to take on her elders when announcing lightweight specialist Joe Fanning will take the ride and the supplementary entry was confirmed when the Molecomb Stakes winner appeared among the 19 names going forward to Friday's contest. Another two-year-old has been supplemented in the shape of Michael Bell's Spicy Marg. Rumstar (Jonathan Portman) is another to be added. Australian ace Asfoora is one of the standout names remaining in the mix as Henry Dwyer's popular international runner bids to better last year's fourth in the race. Richard Hughes won the Nunthorpe twice as a jockey and could taste success in the race again with Sayidah Dariyan who was a Group Three course winner over six furlongs last time, while John Quinn saddled home favourite Highland Princess to win this in 2022 and now alongside son Sean will attempt to repeat the dose with King George Stakes hero Jm Jungle. Second to Jm Jungle at Goodwood was Jack Davison's She's Quality who has been knocking on the door all season long. Joining She's Quality on the journey from Ireland will be Adrian Murray's Sapphire Stakes winner Arizona Blaze. 'He's going to York and it looks an open race,' said Murray. 'He's got a similar profile to Power Blue actually and he always shows up on the day, he never runs a bad race. 'His form stands up well and win or lose he will be bang there, even in defeat he's been a brilliant horse for us.' There is a field of eight for the supporting Weatherbys Lonsdale Cup Stakes where John and Thady Gosden's Gold Cup hero Trawlerman could face an Ascot rematch with Aidan O'Brien's Illinois. The Gosden team could also call on stable stalwart Sweet William, while Karl Burke's Al Qareem has won twice at the Knavesmire this season and is another interesting name in the mix. There are 11 remaining in the Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Gimcrack Stakes where Charlie Appleby's Norfolk Stakes runner-up and recent Rose Bowl Stakes winner Wise Approach sets the standard alongside Ed Walker's consistent Do Or Do Not – last seen placing for the third time in succession at Group level in the Vintage Stakes at Goodwood.
