Can Frankel stretch his unbeaten run to eight?

The Group 1 Sussex Stakes is the unquestionable highlight of 'Glorious Goodwood' and arguably the flat season as a whole. Read what Timeform have to say about each of the four runners...

Canford Cliffs is chasing a sixth consecutive Group 1, his third win at this level coming in this race 12 months ago. Strong traveller with excellent turn of foot, but an on-song Frankel may be more than a match.

Rajsaman was steadily progressive at 3 yrs and won Group 2 in France back at 1m in May before chasing home Goldikova in Prix d'Ispahan at Longchamp. Solid performer at his own level, but up against it here.

Rio De La Plata was a five-time winner in 2010, including in Group 1s in Italy up to 1¼m. Creditable efforts this term, but comes up short at top level in this country, no excuses behind Canford Cliffs at Royal Ascot.

Frankel is an outstanding unbeaten colt who destroyed the opposition from the front in 2000 Guineas. Not as convincing in the St James's Palace but still hard to oppose receiving so much weight as a 3-y-o.

Timeform 1-2-3
1. Frankel
2. Canford Cliffs
3. Rajsaman

Timeform's View: One of the most eagerly anticipated clashes in years and a race which can confirm Frankel as one of the all-time greats. His performance in the 2000 Guineas was exceptional, and in receipt of a hefty 3-y-o allowance he's likely to prove too hot for last year's winner Canford Cliffs.
