Saeed bin Suroor can strike again with Aljabr at Newbury today. He is taken to complete a hat-trick of victories for Godolphin in the Juddmonte Lockinge Stakes following the successes of Cape Cross and Fly To The Stars in the last two runnings of this one-mile Group One contest.
The son of Storm Cat will be joined in today's line up by his stable companion Worldly Manner but the former's claims look outstanding and with Frankie Dettori on board the grey looks nap material.
Aljabr reappeared in the St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot and finished a good oneand-a-quarter-length second to Sendawar.
He improved on that effort next time in the Champagne Lanson Sussex Stakes when he made all the running to account for Docksider by a length in the Goodwood Group One.
Next time Aljabr was found to be lame in a fore-leg after he finished a below-par fourth behind Sendawar at Longchamp in September and has not raced since.
