Golden Horn gets King George go-ahead Golden Horn will "definitely" run in the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot on Saturday week as long as conditions are suitable, said owner Anthony Oppenheimer. Connections of the Investec Derby winner said they would monitor the colt's well-being before committing to the esteemed Group One after he secured victory in the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown on July 4. Trainer John Gosden and Oppenheimer are now happy to run the son of Cape Cross at Ascot under the proviso that the ground does not get too demanding. Oppenheimer told Press Association Sport: "We've definitely decided to run next week as long as the ground is not very soft or heavy. "Hopefully the weather will stay as it has been, nice and fine. "The list of horses to have done what he is attempting is elite and it would be very nice to create history. "Having sponsored the race for many years through De Beers, it would extra special if he won it. "He showed he was versatile at Sandown, making all the running. It was a tough way for him to do it but he came through again."
