Phoenix Of Spain beat Too Darn Hot with ease in the Irish Guineas and can underline his superiority again at Goodwood
Frankie Dettori delivered for the punters on the first day of Glorious Goodwood and he is aboard another short-priced favourite in Too Darn Hot in the Group One Sussex Stakes on Wednesday.
It took four races and a drop back to seven furlongs for Too Darn Hot to get off the mark as a three-year-old in the Prix Jean Prat last time out. With that win in the book and Dettori in such irrepressible form, however, backers seem ready to overlook his less promising start to the season when he steps back up to a mile this time.
