Icon Has Edward Option

Sixties Icon, seventh in the Vodafone Derby, could run in the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot ? ground permitting.

The Galileo colt, out of the Oaks-winning mare Love Divine, was having just his third career start when finishing five-lengths behind Sir Percy at Epsom.

Trainer Jeremy Noseda said: 'Touch wood, Sixties Icon has taken the race extremely well. But a tilt at the King Edward VII would only come under consideration if the ground were good or softer.'

Noseda is also looking to the Royal meeting with his unbeaten two-year-old filly Bahama Mama.

Connections have yet to pinpoint the exact target for the daughter of Invincible Spirit but they have options after she has struck at both five and six furlongs.

Speaking on www.jeremynoseda.com, the Newmarket-based trainer said: 'It was an easy task for her at Brighton but she put up a solid enough performance. It will have helped her gain some more experience.

'Having had a chat with her owners, we will now head to Royal Ascot with her, although we haven't decided which event she'll go for.'
