Lake Forest may be back in action for York meeting

LAKE Forest could be in line for a quick return to action in the Al Basti Equiworld Criterion Stakes at York on Saturday.

The William Haggas-trained four-year-old was most recently seen finishing fifth in the Queen Anne on the opening day of Royal Ascot, where he was beaten less than three lengths in a field of 10.

He is a prior Knavesmire winner, taking the Gimcrack as a two-year-old, and may now head back to the scene of that victory for the Group Three Criterion, formerly run at Newmarket's July course.
