Emulating the feat of his sire Kingman (GB) in winning Sandown's G3 Solario Stakes on Saturday, Juddmonte's TDN Rising Star Field Of Gold (Ire) continued his upward trajectory for the Gosdens who have enjoyed some big moments in this seven-furlong juvenile staging post. Impressive when dealing with some smart contemporaries in a Newmarket novice at the July Festival, the grey son of the well-connected Princess De Lune (Ire) (Shamardal) was keen early for Kieran Shoemark tracking the pace set by chief market rival Royal Playwright (GB) (Lope De Vega {Ire}). Committed approaching two out, the 5-4 favourite may have been idling late as Matauri Bay (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) got to 3/4 of a length at the line, 1 1/2 lengths ahead of the tiring Royal Playwright. John Gosden's tally of six winners in this include the luminaries Raven's Pass and Too Darn Hot (GB) as well as Kingman.
