Entries Rising Sun Gold Challenge

So is LE just in noms to see what draw he pulls in July?
What's the reason for leaving him in the mix if he's not gonna run?
Punters still backing him anti post and their money just being wasted.

I think the connections of LE are keeping there options open; the trainer has stated that the main target is the Gold Challenge, and that they will take it from there. I can't fault this approach, and I think if LE does win the Challenge, they will take him out of the July, but whether he wins it or not, they still have the option available to run in the July

LE shortening a lot with Hollywood

Definitely not scratched yet...final field for all the features declared tomorrow and the only scratchings at this early stage are,Crowd Pleaser from the Gatecrasher Stakes and Olma from the Cup Trial but she remains a possibility in both the Tibouchina and The Rising Sun where New Predator has been declared a runner with Weichong in the saddle..

Watch turf talk will most likely be scratched

Legal Eagle indeed scratched - with a few others - New Predator with Delpech up from draw 3 looks big runner now

Inara and Silver Mountain running in the Tibouchina, The Conglomerate I thinkhas to win the Cup Trial (where Ten Gun Salute has been taken out) to get in the July?

Has there been any suggestion that Legal Eagle has been affected by the virus? -sods law would be,having been convinced that LE would not be scratched(July) due to weight/handicap, for it to get the virus !

I haven't seen 'Turf Talk' so I'm not sure what has changed, but about 2 weeks ago Mr Tarry in an interview with Andrew Bon said that the Gold Challenge was the (first) aim for LE
