Visit Qatar Sussex Stakes (Group 1)

THE Group 1 Sussex Stakes was expected to go to Field Of Gold, but it was that colt’s pacemaker, the 150/1 outsider Qirat (Ralph Beckett/Richard Kingscote) who ended up springing the biggest shock in the history of the pattern, his SP beating the previous 100/1 record price for a Group 1 winner held by Sole Power when winning the 2010 Nunthorpe Stakes.
