Atzeni switches to Cappella Sansevero

The Ger Lyons-trained colt was due to be ridden by Oisin Murphy, but, following the withdrawal of Atzeni's intended mount, Elm Park, Qatar Racing's number one jockey will now switch rides.

Elm Park was taken out of today's race earlier this morning by trainer Andrew Balding due to concerns that quick ground would prove unsuitable.

Another non-runner is Pearl Secret, withdrawn by trainer David Barron from the Gr.3 Pearl Bloodstock Palace House Stakes (14.30), although Qatar Racing will be represented in the race byWind Fire. Atzeni rides the colt for trainer David Brown.

Halation (Makfi Suffolk Stakes - 14.00) and Rocky Rider (Harbour Watch Newmarket Stakes - 16.55) are other Qatar Racing entries today at Newmarket, while Peace And War is engaged to tackle the Gr.3 Pat Day Mile at Churchill Downs (17.38 UK time).
