Wesley Ward’s Lady Aurelia set to run in the Coolmore Nunthorpe at York racecourse next month
Lady Aurelia was a brilliant winner of the King's Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot when last seen and Ward is thrilled with how she has recovered from her Ascot exertions
LADY AURELIA is on track for a crack at the Coolmore Nunthorpe at York next month.
Wesley Ward's speedball put in a stunning display at Royal Ascot when running away with the King's Stand Stakes on her last start.
She is odds-on to claim more Group 1 glory on the Knavesmire and Ward is thrilled with how his filly has recovered from Ascot.
Ward said: "She did some beautiful work on Tuesday, she's got a couple more works to go and we'll be ready.
"She came back from Ascot in unbelievable shape and we're really happy with her.
"We'll have to wait and see what the ground is going to be like, but she won nicely in Ascot last year when the ground was wet, so I don't see it as a big problem.

"Either way we'll be there to give it a shot."
Ward is also hoping for further success on British soil when Happy Like A Fool runs in Wednesday's Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood, the trainer's first runner on the Sussex Downs.
