POINT LONSDALE will have his stamina tested when locking horns with Arrest in the tote.co.uk Supporting Racing Ormonde Stakes on the second day of the Chester Festival.

Aidan O’Brien’s five-year-old has never raced beyond a mile and a half in a successful 15-race career to date, so he will be travelling over 13 and a half furlongs for the first time in this Group Three contest.

Ryan Moore guided Point Lonsdale to victory in the Group Two Huxley Stakes 12 months ago – the last taste of success for the durable Australia entire, who is back in domestic action after a stint in the Middle East this winter.
