CAVALRYMAN READY FOR BATTLE

Cavalryman bids to set the record straight in Germany on Sunday when he runs in the Group One Rheinland-Pokal at Cologne.

Godolphin's representative finished last in the Grosser Preis von Berlin in July, after having previously shaped with promise in the Fred Archer Stakes at Newmarket.

Connections remain optimistic the Frankie Dettori-ridden five-year-old can atone for his no-show at Hoppegarten last month.

Trainer Saeed bin Suroor told www.godolphin.com: "I was disappointed with Cavalryman's latest run in Germany.

"However, he came out of that run sound and has been working well.

"I think he deserves another chance in Group One company and we will see how he gets on."
