Just 24 hours after winning the Ascot Gold Cup with the Queen's Estimate, Sir Michael Stoute unearthed a viable contender for the St Leger after Hillstar took the King Edward VII Stakes under a fine waiting ride from Ryan Moore.
Investec Derby fourth Battle Of Marengo was sent off the 10-11 favourite for the Group Two over a mile and a half and jockey Joseph O'Brien made a bold bid for home. The race looked over as he was a good three lengths clear of the pack entering the final furlong, but Hillstar made relentless progress on the outside.
