2. Pedigree Insights: Andrew Caulfield on Dream Castle (GB) and his sire, Frankel (GB).
"Dream Castle therefore adds weight to the argument that Frankel–like Galileo–is ideally well suited by fast and precocious mares.

3. Video: Gary King chats to Coolmore's David O'Loughlin about U S Navy Flag (USA).
"Danehill didn’t win it [G1 July Cup], but he nearly won it. Anabaa, Starspangledbanner, Mozart, and Oasis Dream all won it. So it’s always been a very good race and it’s a great meeting; with a huge amount of breeders there so a horse always has a good profile after winning it."
